Zapalgo is a creative designers group from Warsaw, Poland. In their work they focus mainly on lighting design, but also they create extraordinary furniture and home accessories. Each Zapalgo product is hand-made to order with a wide selection of finishes to choose from. It is their fixed idea. Something they will never let go. A high quality and personalization of their designs, so that each one can be given a very individual character. In a way designers from Zapalgo are trying to convince their soon-to-be clients to treat their work as some kind of a canvas. It comes down to the notion of freedom and fulfilling one’s needs – Zapalgo’s pieces are the base on which one can express oneself.

Arco series – a collection of urban loft wall lights with a wide variety of combinations – is the best example of this approach. This collection consist of four variations of a simple model. Arco, the main representative, is a modest yet aesthetically powerful fixture which can find its place in almost any interior. Arco.S is expanded by a shade made of highest quality linen – one might choose between eight, carefully selected, fabrics. Arco.K, is an interesting variation because of the way it works. When Arco is a simple, “normal” sconce – perceived in terms of usability – Arco.K is one of the tricksters in its own family. It can be turned on or off by operating the knob. Moreover, it can be used to control the amount of brightness one wish to be achieved. This brings us to Arco.K&S – a designers combo, perfect manifestation of Zapalgo’s notion of freedom in customization. There is three different sections of a lamp which can be customized: metal finish, shade and knob color. The combinations are almost limitless. A modern bedside lamp in the ethereal combination of rose gold and natural, white linen? Or maybe contemporary, minimalist brass sconce with large milk globe for avant-garde apartment? Or joyful combination of turquoise patina and fruit yellow dimmer knob for crazy, colorful interiors? Everything is possible with Arco series.

Zapalgo’s website is a perfect place to experiment with different patterns and color sets. It is a great journey in which one might discover new connections, new ways to express oneself, new perspectives in which lamps, furniture and accessories can be perceived. Arco, a lamp with many faces, is a perfect manifestation of such exciting journey and fun with design. One might want to control the light by their wonderful dimmer mechanisms but one might find it hard to control ones urge to have fun with it.
