Enrico Franzolini Lighting for Pallucco and Karboxx: Where Each Design Works

Enrico Franzolini, Italian architect and designer from Udine

Enrico Franzolini is an architect who has run his studio in Udine since 1981 and designs furniture and lighting for leading Italian makers. His lights for Pallucco and Karboxx work with light-shaping materials: parchment, blown glass, mirror steel, fiberglass and carbon fiber.

“A Gilda by the sofa, a Drink over the desk.”

Our rule of thumb

Living rooms and studios

The Gilda floor lamp puts a large shade on an adjustable tripod, borrowed from a photographer’s studio light; Baby Gilda fits smaller rooms. Calla is a tall, flower-shaped uplight for a corner.

Over dining tables and islands

  • Egg: amber blown glass in a metal cage, also as a table lamp.
  • Glow and Alexandra: layered shades for dining rooms and restaurants.
  • Half Moon and Gout: compact pendants to repeat over an island or bar.

Offices, halls and commercial spaces

Drink cones pivot 360° to aim light at a desk or a wall, as floor or ceiling lights, and the Ola family covers floor, table, wall and pendant versions in five colors. Fold uses mirror-polished steel for walls in halls and lobbies.
