Marset re-launches the Funiculí lamp collection in earthy shades

While the design of the lamps was essentially intended to be functional, these new colours add a touch of vibrancy and cheerfulness to the products.

The Funiculí collection, originally designed by Lluís Porqueras in the late 1970s, has now been launched in three new colours by Marset, a prominent Spanish lighting brand. Porqueras, an industrial designer based in Barcelona, Spain, first designed the Funiculí floor lamp in 1979. This was reissued and expanded by Marset in the year 2013 to include a table lamp and wall lamp. The inconspicuous lamp created by the Spanish designer now comes in the shades of green, terracotta and mustard yellow, in addition to the neutral colours that were previously available.

While the design of the lamps was essentially intended to be functional, these new colours add a touch of vibrancy and cheerfulness to the products. The Funiculí lamps are compact and lightweight luminaires that can easily be adjusted according to the space available. All three lamps in the collection can be used as a source of both direct or ambient light, by changing the direction of the light beam and projecting it at any angle. In addition to this, the lamps can also easily be adjusted at desired heights for different needs and purposes.

Designed to last for decades and to adjust to every lighting need within an interior space, the lamp collection suits contemporary sensibilities. It carries a very subtle design vocabulary, making it suitable to inhabit different kinds of spaces without overpowering them with its presence.

Driven by the motto to create products that not only serve as utilitarian objects, but also feature as attractive entities in the spaces they inhabit, the 45 year old brand has strongly imprinted itself in the lighting industry. It was founded in the year 1976 in Barcelona, Spain, and has gone on to expand business in Italy, Germany and USA.
