The Italian lighting company, Contardi, has once again teamed up with renowned interior designer Francis Sultana to create a stunning bespoke piece. The Palm table lamp, originally designed for the Hotel La Palma in Capri, has now been added to Contardi’s exclusive collection.
One year after the opening of Hotel La Palma in Capri, Contardi is strengthening its collaboration with the renowned interior designer Francis Sultana by introducing the refined Palm table lamp into its bespoke collection, originally developed by the designer and created ad hoc by the brand for the renowned Italian hotel.
The Palm Lamp: A Blend of Design and Functionality
The Palm lamp, a proposal that combines design and functionality, stands out for its elegant materials and the practicality of its rechargeable battery. Made from moulded composite material, it is available in two colour variants: white and aqua green, both with a matte finish. The raffia lampshade adds a sophisticated touch, perfectly in line with the exclusive aesthetics of Hotel La Palma.
Customizable and Energy-Efficient
Furthermore, it can be customised with a wide range of colours and materials, making it highly adaptable to any environment. Palm is equipped with a 4.5W Custom LED, providing 400 lumens of brightness and an 8-hour battery life. Charging is via a handy USB Type C cable, and the dimmable switch allows you to adjust the intensity of the light to create the perfect atmosphere for any occasion.
Witnessing Contardi’s ability to blend innovation and design, Palm not only illuminates but also becomes a distinctive element, capable of enhancing any environment with its discreet and refined presence.
The Hotel La Palma project
Contardi, a leader in the development of bespoke and large-scale lighting solutions for luxury hospitality projects, has been chosen by internationally renowned interior designer Francis Sultana to illuminate the five-star Hotel La Palma in Capri. As the first Masterpiece Hotel in Italy by the Oetker Collection, this exclusive project restores the former splendour of the old Locanda Pagano, the island’s first historic hotel, opened in 1822. A place of great charm, it underwent an extraordinary renovation completed in 2023, celebrating the Dolce Vita and representing the ultimate expression of a home away from home.
Contardi’s Expertise in Bespoke Lighting
Hotel La Palma serves as the stage where Contardi’s technical expertise and bespoke production approach are fully expressed through the development of custom lighting solutions. The Palm battery-operated table lamps illuminate the Gennaro’s restaurant and the Terrazza Bianca.
Contardi has also created adjustable reading wall lights for all the rooms and suites, retro-styled Arturo wall lamps for the bathrooms, and elegant Alvise wall lights for the lobby and corridors.
This prestigious collaboration reaffirms Contardi’s ability to deliver bespoke products that meet the designer’s needs, establishing the company over the years as the ‘couturier of light.
