Introduced in 1975, Sintesi was the first Artemide lamp signed by its founder, Ernesto Gismondi.
Conceived as an intelligent system, it is built around simple, shared components that form a versatile family of products.
The table version, now reissued, is the core from which the entire system evolves.
Its structure is minimal yet adjustable in height and angle, composed of a few bent metal elements.
Two C-shaped profiles of different lengths create a Y-shaped support, allowing the lamp to tilt through a simple opening and closing motion.
The light source is held and directed by a frame with a E27 socket, ensuring long-term adaptability. The frame also supports a reflector and a protective grid.
Sintesi can fold in on itself for compact packaging. Its direct and functional design reflects the hands-on approach of Ernesto Gismondi, who combined technical vision, production efficiency, and attention to quality to create a timeless icon.
