Niccolò Adolini and Daniel Simonini, after important work experiences developed together at the most prestigious design studios in Milan ( Piero Lissoni, Ferruccio Laviani, Palomba Serafini) meet in 2011 at Studio Dordoni, and the following year establish Ado-lini+Simonini. Headquartered in Milan and in San Paulo, the studio is involved in product/graphic design, and currently cooperates with major Italian and Brazilian companies.

Skin draws inspiration from the name COBRA. We tried to reinterpret the graphic image of snakeskin in a con-temporary and digital , almost abstract , way that could confer an organic movement to the body of the lamp. This new pattern combines graphic images from the 1960s with traits present in nature and in everyday life.

SWIVEL TABLE LAMP, DIRECT LIGHT. CONSISTING OF TWO PRINTED BODIES MADE OF RESIN. THE LOWER BODY ROTATES ON THE STEEL MADE BASE BELOW AND IS CONNECTED TO THE UPPER BODY BY MEANS OF A CENTRAL JOINT THAT ALLOWS THE 360° ROTATION. INSIDE REFLECTOR MADE OF WHITE PAINTED ALUMINIUM. DESIGNED BY ELIO MARTINELLI IN 1968, COBRA IS ONE OF THE FIRST LIGHTING FIXTURES PRODUCED WITH A SPECIAL RESIN MOLDING SYSTEM. THE LAMP IS CHARACTERIZED BY SIMPLE LINES AND A GEOMETRIC SHAPE INSCRIBED IN A SPHERE, BUT, WITH THE ROTATION OF THE ARM, THE REFLECTOR TAKES A POSITION THAT RECALLS THE HEAD OF A COBRA READY TO SHOOT.
