Tatu is a lamp-object that became an design landmark and a symbol of 1970s Spanish pop culture. Its mechanical body, like a compact task lamp, was conceived in three independently rotating sections that adapt to use on a shelf, desk, bedside table—or even as a wall sconce, for which the required mounting is included.
Its light is easily adjustable in both intensity and beam angle, making it ideal for focused tasks or moments of retreat. And its charm is legendary.
The tatú, or armadillo, is a friendly mammal protected by a dorsal shell that shields it when it curls into itself. This lamp recalls a more playful era, when Europe’s middle classes entered the age of mass consumption and their children launched into a sweeping aesthetic revolution—one in which everything bent and twisted, from Andy Warhol to The Beatles to Mary Quant. Everything could be expressed differently.
Applications: table or wall lamp.
Adjustable focal length from 30º to 50º.
