Takku, Artemide

Takku is an understated portable battery-powered lamp that can be used as an intimate source of light for the bedside or table-top. Its form is reminiscent of a pin used to temporarily affix notes to a surface, alluding to its inherent portability and flexibility. Takku’s versatility allows it to adapt to spatial layouts that change through time, be it the home-office, indoor/outdoor hospitality settings or a variety of dynamic spaces.

Showcasing its industrial roots, it has an extruded anodised aluminium stem containing a single LED and re-chargeable power source that is optimised for disassembly. The light is reflected off the inside of a formed aluminium head containing an optimised diffuser that distributes the light evenly around the stem, creating an ethereal, floating aesthetic.
