Catellani & Smith 

"When I create a new lamp always start from the prototype; my lab is a space where the workshop constantly accumulating materials, components, objects, of the most varied; that's where I was born ... I assemble everything, balance, bend, I shape ... I need to feel the materials, see how they play with the light.

In this first phase there is no real design, the idea must immediately take shape, become an object. Only then do I move on to the classic design phase: feasibility, technical characteristics and so on; it is an idea of ​​light and the desire to tell it to guide me in the construction. I believe that this path can be felt in the Catellani & Smith product.

Much of my production is composed of parts that require an important craftsmanship: it is the hand of the craftsman who builds them, his manual intervention that creates the imperfection to make the unique object. " Enzo Catellani
