Oluce Coupé 1158 Wall Lamp By Joe Colombo
Designed by Joe Colombo for Oluce
Design Joe Colombo, 1967
Designed by Joe Colombo in 1967 for Oluce, the Coupé lamp was conceived as a variation of the Spider collection, maintaining the same base and stem while introducing a sleek, adjustable dome. This ingenious mechanism allows the light beam to be directed up, down, and sideways, offering exceptional versatility that became a hallmark of mid-century Italian design innovation.
A recipient of the prestigious International Design Award (1968) from the American Institute of Interior Designers, the Coupé is now part of the permanent collections at MoMA New York and the Neue Sammlung Museum in Munich. This accolade underscores its lasting influence on global design trends.
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, perfect for enhancing both residential and commercial interiors.
