Nemo Lighting: Le Corbusier and Perriand lighting

Founded in Milan in 1993by Franco Cassina, Nemo Lighting has established itself as one of Italy's most rigorous lighting design houses. Now led by Federico Palazzari, the brand distributes its Nemo lightingin over 80 countries from its Milan headquarters, with branches in France and the United States. In 2024, the acquisition of FontanaArteconfirmed the ambition of the Nemo Group: which also includes Reggiani Illuminazione and ILTI Luce: to become a major player in Italian lighting design. Every Nemo lampcarries this dual requirement: heritage and precision.

The Masters Collection: Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, Vico Magistretti

The Masters collection brings together licensed reissues of designs produced in accordance with the original materials. These collector's items span a century of design:

Le Corbusier: Cabanon lamp, Lampe de Marseille, Applique de Marseille, and Applique Radieuse.
Charlotte Perriand: Potence Pivotante (1938, inspired by sailboat booms) and Lampe de Bureau (1965, created with Boussois glassworks).
Vico Magistretti: Claritas, the master’s first lighting design (1946), and Kuta.
Franco Albini: AS1C, AM1N, AS41C.
Kazuhide Takahama: Saori (1973).

Every nemo luminaire in this line is as much a collector's item as it is a functional object, produced to the original technical specifications.

Contemporary designers: Mario Bellini, Jean Nouvel, Andrea Branzi

The contemporary line of Nemo lighting brings together active architects and designers, with the same demand for technical precision as the Masters collection.

Mario Bellini: Nuvola, a suspension lamp designed in 1974 for Pianeta Ufficio.
Jean Nouvel: On Lines, an LED wall and suspension lamp with an aluminum base and methacrylate diffusers.
Bernhard Osann: Neo (Wallpaper* Design Award, Euroluce 2019), Swan, and Fox.
Arihiro Miyake: Portofino, a portable and rechargeable lamp, Drop, and Titia.
Andrea Branzi: Newton Floor Lamp.

The roster also extends to Alvaro Siza, Rudy Ricciotti, JEHS+LAUB, Roberto Paoli, Lina Bo Bardi, and Charles Kalpakian: a catalog of designer lighting that explores new forms without ever sacrificing constructive rigor. Among the designer suspension lamps in the range, Bellini's Nuvola remains one of the most sought-after references.
