The lamp you were waiting for: Snoopy Flos

The Snoopy Blu by Flos is a timeless icon of Italian design, created by the renowned designers Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in 1967. This direct light table lamp is in fact much more than a simple functional object: it is a piece of art which combines creativity, innovation and precious materials.

It is therefore perfect for you if you want to add a touch of elegance and originality to your space.

Let's discover Snoopy in detail!

Distinctive features of the Blue Snoopy

The Snoopy lamp is immediately recognizable for its playful yet elegant design. Its painted metal reflector, here in a vibrant blue shade, evokes the rounded and lively profile of Charles Schulz's famous cartoon character, Snoopy.

The base of the lamp, however, is made of white Carrara marble, a choice that not only gives stability to the object, but elevates it to a luxury object thanks to the purity and shine of this precious Italian material. Therefore, among the factors that make the Snoopy so unique is the combination of contrasting materials: the cold and solid marble combines with the painted metal reflector, creating a visual and tactile contrast that captures attention.

Furthermore, the reflector is designed to direct the light downwards, making it ideal for targeted and functional lighting. Finally, the lamp is equipped with an integrated dimmer, which allows you to adjust the intensity of the light according to your needs.

An elegant and timeless design

The playful shape of Snoopy affectionately recalls the famous dog from the comics. The lamp, however, is not limited to being a direct homage to Snoopy, but rather captures the essence of lightness and liveliness of the character, making it a luminous sculpture that can adapt to various contexts.

The idea of ​​giving a comic-like shape to such a functional object therefore shows the ability of the Castiglioni brothers to combine the world of industrial design with elements of irony and pop culture. This ability to mix form and function with creativity has made the Snoopy lamp a timeless classic, appreciated by generations of design lovers.

Why choose the Snoopy Blu by Flos?

In addition to the charm of Castiglioni's signature design, there are multiple reasons why the Snoopy Blue is an excellent choice. First of all, it is a lamp that will never go out of fashion: its design dating back to the 1960s is still very modern today and adapts perfectly to contemporary contexts as well as more classic ones.

The choice of blue color for the reflector also makes it a particularly interesting piece. Blue is a shade that transmits calm and serenity, making the lamp suitable for spaces such as studies, living rooms or bedrooms, where the lighting must promote a relaxing atmosphere. However, blue also has a component of liveliness, which allows to the lamp to be inserted in creative or dynamic context such as offices or artistic studios.

Another reason to choose the Snoopy Blue is the quality of the materials. White Carrara marble is not only an elegant and durable material, but is also a symbol of Italian craftsmanship excellence. Each base is unique, thanks to the natural grain of the marble, which gives each lamp an individual character.

Where to place the Blue Snoopy

The Blue Snoopy, thanks to its strong personality and iconic design, can be placed in different environments of the home or office. It is perfect on a desk, thanks to the direct and adjustable light that offers adequate lighting for working or reading. In a living room, Snoopy becomes a focal point, attracting the attention of anyone who enters the room. It can be placed on a side table near a sofa, or on a console, where it can express all its aesthetic potential. Its soft and adjustable light also makes it ideal in a bedroom, next to a bed or on a dresser, where it can create an intimate and welcoming atmosphere.

In more formal environments, such as offices or professional studios, the Snoopy Blue adds a touch of creativity without compromising the elegance and professionalism of the space. It looks perfect on a desk or in a meeting room, where its iconic design can inspire creativity and innovation.

Quality of materials

One of the most fascinating aspects of the Snoopy lamp is the purity of the materials used. White Carrara marble, known for its exceptional beauty and brilliance, provides a stable and visually stunning base. Its natural shine reflects light delicately, making the lamp not only a functional object, but also a light sculpture.

The painted metal reflector, however, with its glossy finish and intense colour, captures and diffuses the light uniformly, while the use of blue gives a touch of modernity and refinement. This combination of high-quality materials guarantees not only durability but also impeccable aesthetics.

In conclusion, the Snoopy Blu by Flos is much more than a simple table lamp: it is an icon of design, a luxury object and a celebration of art and innovation. With its inspired design and fine materials, it is a perfect choice if you want to add a distinctive, high-quality element to your spaces.
