Carlotta de Bevilacqua Lighting: Artemide Lamps, Room by Room

Lighting designer Carlotta de Bevilacqua holding an LED light bar

Carlotta de Bevilacqua designs for people first: a pioneer of LED design at Artemide, she helped define its “Human Light” idea. Her lamps are easy to specify because each one has a clear job, over the table, beside the chair or along the hall.

“Choose by the job: pendant over the table, table lamp at eye level, wall light in the hall.”

Our rule of thumb

Dining rooms, kitchens and entries

For a table or island that needs a centerpiece, choose the Copernico (about 41 in. across), the square Altrove pendant or the Empatia pendant in hand-blown glass. The Eclittica ring is the lightest of the four.

Living rooms and bedrooms

  • Empatia table lamp: glass glow for a console or nightstand.
  • Come Together: cordless, up to 16 hours, for a sofa table or bedside.
  • Mimesi: a 76 in. floor lamp beside the sofa.
  • Yang: a colored-light accent for a studio or media room.

Hallways, offices and studies

The Empatia wall and ceiling light and the 23.6 in. Altrove wall and ceiling light give clean, even ambient light, and the Eclittica table lamp aims light where you work.
