Lamparaprima

Designed to rest on a desk or hang from a wall, Lamparaprima consists of a metal rod supporting an LED tube, encased in a rotating visor-like shade. By bending and twisting a clothes hanger, Pete Sans came upon an ingenious and expressive solution that would become his first commercial lamp and the second product ever issued by Santa & Cole.

“There is always an element of invention in my work”, explains the creator. The 2025 version introduces a low-voltage (12V) system that gives the structure itself the ability to conduct electricity. This requires an LED light source, even if it’s still visually reminiscent of a traditional soffit, and allows it to operate with a simple rotation of the shade to switch it on or off. This lamp was Santa & Cole’s second product, back in 1985.
