Oluce Coupé 1158 Wall Lamp by Joe Colombo– Arched Artistry
Designed by Joe Colombo for Oluce
Design Joe Colombo, 1967
Designed by Joe Colombo in 1967 for Oluce, the Coupé lamp was originally conceived as a variation of the Spider collection, retaining the same base and stem while introducing an innovative, adjustable dome. Its ingenious mechanism allows light to be directed up, down, and sideways, offering exceptional versatility and functional elegance that defined mid-century Italian design.
A recipient of the prestigious International Design Award (1968) from the American Institute of Interior Designers, the Coupé has secured its place in design history, now featured in the permanent collections of MoMA New York and the Neue Sammlung Museum in Munich. Its recognition reflects its groundbreaking approach to lighting design.
Available in semi-cylindrical and semi-spherical dome versions, the Coupé collection by Oluce has expanded over the years to include table, floor, and wall lamp variations. A true icon of mid-century Italian design, the Coupé remains one of the most celebrated and sought-after collections, blending timeless elegance with modern functionality, making it a perfect addition to both residential and commercial spaces.
