Scopas is a pendant lamp designed by Neil Poulton for lighting company Artemide. It uses repetition of a basic module to create an incomplete sphere, as though it were left hanging. Constantly changing, depending on where you view it from, it breaks radically with the simple, sometimes monotonous shapes usually associated with this type of light. Like the Empire's Death Star, immobile in space, its unfinished appearance belies its technological efficiency. This pendant lamp is both graphic and almost lunar, emitting a light that becomes hypnotic.

In 1959, Ernesto Gismondi combines engineering and design and founds Artemide. His motto “The Human Light” represents Man and his well-being, which are at the center of attention during the design of lighting. The brand Artemide very quickly becomes the leader of lighting design and its manufacturing. The publishing house Artemide invests from its beginnings in international groups such as “Memphis” by Ettore Sotsass, a forerunner in the manufacturing of contemporary lighting. Artemide chains collaborations and the successes multiply with: the Nessino Artemide lamp, designed by Giancarlo Mattioli, the Artemide suspension, and the Artemide desk lamp is also part of these iconic creations by Artemide, combining innovative design and retro style from the 70s.
