The Cabanon table lamp, published by lighting house Nemo Lighting, was imagined and then created by Le Corbusier. The beginnings of the "Cabanon" project date back to 1952, when the architect designed a lamp capable of embodying the absolute archetype of essential living.
The Lamp Cabanon is a symbol of architecture, design, production and essential art of living. The base of the luminaire originally came from a mortar bus stand, extended by a tracing paper lampshade. There are a large number of sketches and drawings illustrating the design of the Lampe Cabanon, which represents a real moment of renaissance in the post-war world.
Nemo Lighting, which was founded in Milan in 1993 by Franco Cassina, is a reference name rooted in a history of innovation that has always inspired Italian design. Owned by Federico Palazzari, Nemo creates the Masters collection, a unique selection of lamps designed by 20th-century masters such as Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, Vico Magistretti, Franco Albini, and Kazuhide Takahama. Among the iconic creations of Charlotte Perriand for Nemo Lighting are the wall lamps that beautifully combine design and functionality, continuing the legacy of minimalist elegance in lighting.
