Emanuel Gargano

With his collection of lights, Emanuel Gargano has managed with great skill to bring together the nature and culture of his homeland, Assisi, the main source of inspiration in the realization of this project. Thus, he realized objects of light rather than lamps, the result of his architectural vision and design experience, where the luminous element has always played a functional and decisive role in the modulation of space. The leitmotiv of the entire collection is the attempt not to illuminate with artificial light but to soften the shadow or lighten the dark. It is for this reason that the light emanating from these creations seems to come from the darkness like a glow, as if to underline and enhance the original forms that produce it. The handcrafted and molded materials seem willing to come out on tiptoe and illuminate the blurred memory of the past, manifesting the need to tell its story by lighting itself up.
What guided the designer towards the realization of this project was also the need to move towards responsible design, which takes charge of environmental problems and the recovery of materials.
