Fork, table design Diesel Creative Team
The Fork lampshade is a steel fork with a diffuser inspired by casual fashion and an informal, playful lifestyle. The light inside the diffuser illuminates its patchwork structure, the texture of the canvas and its jeans-style visible stitching creating an effect which is rather like switching on a light inside a tent. Nothing in Fork is left to chance. Its rings are not merely decorative but respond to practical needs with simplicity and immediacy. Its ivory or grey diffuser – made of linen treated with a special process that gives it a vintage appearance – can be combined with an ivory or brown metal mount for a total of four different colour combinations. Versatile and extremely flexible, its adjustment range is 360°. The structure joints in the floor and table versions also make it highly mobile. This means you can change the direction of the light as you please and have fun with the lamp, playing around with its infinite range of combinations. All of Fork’s dynamism is there in the suspension versions, which are available in two sizes, and in the wall version too.

Description Table lamp with diffused and direct light. The outline of the matt satin finish polycarbonate diffuser is covered with pure linen fabric, with a purposely uneven weft and warp of the fabric achieved by hand. The fabric is stained and undergoes anti-fray treatment; it is then cut into pieces and tailored by hand using a sewing machine with visible seams. The brass eyelets are galvanised in gun barrel colour. A special locking and sliding system positions the diffuser along the rod; a hand-welded painted steel fork houses the linear halogen light bulb, allowing the diffuser to turn freely through 360° along its axis. The rod and base are made of powder-coated steel, while the joints on the rod are painted black for the ivory version and brown for the brown version. These joints make it possible to bend the rod in two places, at the base and in the middle, allowing users to shape the lamp to their liking. Silk-screen printed matt Diesel logo at the base of the rod, the electrical cable and dimmer are transparent. Materials: Dyed linen, polycarbonate and coated steel Colours: Brown/Grey, Brown/Ivory, Ivory/Grey, Ivory/Ivory

Diesel Creative Team In 2009, Foscarini signed a partnership agreement with Diesel as part of the "Home Collection" home furnishings and lifestyle project. This partnership has given Foscarini the opportunity to make contact with a new target clientele and explore new lifestyles and furnishing trends through a collection conceived by Diesel for its own target group: "Diesel Living with Foscarini". The Diesel Living with Foscarini collection speaks a range of different languages - from rock to pop, industrial to vintage, graphics to art - to illustrate the unmistakable Diesel lifestyle. Ironic, transgressive, eclectic, incandescent, the collection is made up of over 40 different lamp models. The collection is structured into a range of forms, materials and intended uses, lending itself to unexpected and unconventional settings, from domestic to public environments, always with a strong personality. The materials selected and researched for Foscarini, and perhaps even more so in the Diesel Living with Foscarini collection, are of the utmost importance. Materials which have never before been used in the lighting industry are the collection’s added value.
