Nº8
marset > Wall lamp
A sensual lamp that seduces the senses of sight and touch.The Nº8 reading lamp fulfils all the necessary criteria for perfect operation: efficient light, easy handling, durability, and beauty. It was designed specifically to respond to each of these requirements, resulting in a “well-rounded” fixture that fulfils its mission perfectly. The wooden sphere of the Nº 8’s lampshade is handcrafted to make each lamp unique. Its smooth texture has the quality and feel of a billiard ball, while its flexible arm, covered in braided fabric, is a mainstay that improves its look without sacrificing its efficacy. The Nº8 was designed to be placed at the head of a bed and add comfort to the bedroom, a place dedicated to restfulness, where a good book is always healthier than a sleeping pill.
Fris
marset > Ceiling lamp
Drawing thin beams of light in a space with each one of them pointing in any direction. This is why we have created Fris, a multi-purpose lighting system, available in a wall/ceiling or pendant version, which allows you to combine several units in different sizes and positions, each one aiming its own beam of light.Its design consists of a glass tube that encases the light. What makes it unique is that the glass not only protects the light, but also provides a mechanical function, suspending the whole system and allowing the lamp to rotate and the light to be steered in a certain direction. As a result, the glass is both material and function. Through the transparent glass we see the lamp’s interior, which consists of two profiles: one includes the light source and the other acts as a parabola, projecting a crisp, intense light. This system makes it possible to compose light structures and to join a set of lamps by means of different assembly and hanging accessories. In the pendant version, each Fris unit is supported by a strap, so that several can be placed horizontally, in line, one on top of the other, or perpendicularly, creating intersections of light. They can also function separately as an individual lamp. The other version can be fixed to the ceiling or wall. The pendant version is available in three lengths of 80, 155 cm and 215 cm and the version for ceiling or wall comes in another three lenghts 80, 155, and 215 cm. There is also a more technical version where the light is distributed in cells with independent lenses, achieving a UGR of under 19. Fris offers a very versatile and functional design for precise lighting of any type of project. An ingenious system that boldly tackles a previously unresolved issue: to have a set of lamps where each one directs the light individually.
Ginger
marset > Wall lamp
The Ginger collection is moving outdoors, with wall sconces that can be installed individually or in a cluster, a new 15 cm sconce —perfect for passageways and small outdoor areas—, a lamppost and small floor lamps. The Ginger outdoor also introduces a unique rust finish, with a deep, warm glow, alongside the standard black-white metal finish of the indoor version.As for the small Ginger wall lamp, it consists of a circular, 15-cm diameter shade that only casts light downward, illuminating just the path and avoiding glare.
Milana
marset > Ceiling lamp
Moving the point of light, that’s the idea behind the new design by Jaume Ramírez. Milana involves a system of modular suspension lamps that combine with one another and can be moved both vertically and horizontally.Paradoxically, this new design starts by deconstructing the archetype of a lamp; by synthesizing it as much as possible, only a cylindrical body remains, suspended with a built-in LED. To this cylinder we can add different conical shades in oyster white and black in several sizes. But most ingenious of all is that each of these lamps can have a simple counterweight such that when they are hung between two points, they can be moved. An almost imperceptible lens covers the LED and distributes the light. If only the cylindrical lamp is used, the downward-directed light is impeccable, and when a shade is added, the light escapes, illuminating the lamp itself. This new lighting system gives the user control of the light, offering a new conceptual proposal. Furthermore, the Milana collection is now also available with a pressed glass accessory, in a smoked finish. A feature that adds volume and nuance to your lighting. This version is 24 V-ready, a technical detail that allows several lamp units to be connected to a single light source. With the pressed glass version of Milana, light sets can be created to illuminate large spaces. Covering and baring lamps, moving them up, down and sideways. Mixing cylindrical shapes or combining them with decorative lamps. Milana lets you create countless compositions, a symphony of light. A cluster accessory is also available for the Milana collection, allowing you to connect several pendant lamps at once to a single point of light. This offers the freedom to build with light, to illuminate large spaces and to create compositions.
Piola
marset > Ceiling lamp
How does one design a light that translates the playfulness of an endlessly spiraling ribbon? The Piola collection is about imitating this fluidity of infinite movement, in search of a balance between the diffusion of light and the creation of shadows.A central metal column holds more than 5 meters of spiraling, laminated band, enveloping, protecting, and sifting the light for beauty and comfort. Several different types of light coexist here: direct downward light, indirect reflected light, and a light that sneaks between the edges of the spiral, illuminating the fixture itself with a warm, homey glow. The fixture’s spiraling form breaks with the monotony of cleanly ordered lines, offering a different face from every angle. At the same time, the central column provides a symmetry and solidity that supports and reinforces the visual movement of the screen.
Scantling
marset > Table lamp
Wood and metal combine in a design with basic geometric shapes. The Scantling is based on a highly functional and flexible system in which all the movements of the fully rotational shade rely on ball joints and arms to create a versatile, easy-to-move light. In addition, its technical precision requires no exposed springs or counterweights to stay in the specified position.The word Scantling refers to a wooden strip that was formerly used as a unit of measurement, especially in shipbuilding. Its assembly is reminiscent of a construction set, and its profile evokes a silhouette of light, an archetypal, almost graphic design. The Scantling collection includes a table, wall and two floor versions.
MVV
marset > Ceiling lamp
The MVV story begins in the 1970s. This new suspension lamp is a first, and was designed by Manuel Valls Vergés, one of Spain’s most notable architects at the time and partner of Jose Antonio Coderch for 15 years, alongside whom he undertook such prominent projects as the Ugalde house, near Barcelona. The MVV name reflects Vergés’ initials, as a way of displaying his authorship of this unique lamp. That was the desire of his grandson, also an architect, and of his partners in the Two-bo studio. Pablo, María and Alberto rescued this lamp 45 years later.Marset, acting as a bridge in time, took the original design —an octagon with overlapping sheets— and updated it by giving it a dual skin: cherry wood on the outside of the sheets and a white colour inside to enhance the light quality. The measurements are the same as the original’s —45 cm— and the interior structure, which was originally made of iron, is now polycarbonate, which makes it lighter. Through the use of wood, the MVV yields an exceptionally warm light. An understated, rational and eminently geometric lamp —the MVV is like a construction site, in which the direct, down-facing light is complemented by indirect light that filters through the sheets. A design that, though timeless, reflects the constructive logic of that period and evokes a great many memories.
Bolita
marset > Table lamp
In such a digital era as today’s, when you can buy anything with just a click and read by swiping a finger, we sometimes miss something as human as a touch, and everything that entails. The Bolita lamp beckons you to touch it to adjust it.Its structure is as simple as it is magical: a rounded surface that houses an LED located on a central axis, and an overlapping glass sphere that when moved, creates an eclipse effect. Moving the Bolita dims or boosts the light, an interplay that captivates with its beautiful visual effect. Bolita seeks out that user interaction. The idea of Florian and Sebastian at the kaschkasch studio was to design a lamp in which the dimming process was mechanical and not electronic. A technologically innovative design that brings back the sense of touch.
Babila
marset > Wall lamp
Babila demonstrates that, when it comes to a design, the material can be as important as the shape. This new outdoor wall sconce is of polished stainless steel, a circular object that produces a panoramic effect, reflecting its surroundings. It is not designed to be an architectural element, but rather a simple and beautiful design that draws attention, whether on or off, as it allows us to catch a glimpse of the daily life occurring around it.Babila comes in two sizes, 18 and 28 cm in diameter, and is also available in matt white or brown varnished aluminium, which provide a more discreet alternative to the chrome finish. In all of them an aura of blurred light is generated, a detail that contrasts with its material. Its lighting is indirect, soft on the wall, and well integrated into outside spaces.
Soho
marset > Ceiling lamp
Soho is presented as a statement, in recognition of the merits of the lamps traditionally used in markets, taverns and cafeterias. After studying different volumes, proportions and materials, new uses and lighting effects have emerged.It is cast in rotomolded polyethylene, a technique that allows the suspension version to be made in various sizes: 38, 57 and 112 cm in diameter. It is also available in wall, ceiling and floor versions. The entire collection is offered in various finishes: black, grey, white, and sky blue.
Funiculí
marset > Wall lamp
Funiculí is one of Marset’s most emblematic lamps. Its design has been around a long time, and yet its style remains current and functional.
Scotch Club
marset > Functional light
The warmth of the Scotch Club’s ceramics contrasts with the angles of the shade. This design follows a careful artisanal production process in which its shade is kiln-fired four times. But the Scotch Club collection isn’t just defined by ceramics. The different enamels created especially for this collection – white, terracotta and black for the outside and the brilliant white enamel or 24-carat liquid gold finishes for the inside – provide colour and texture.This original design draws geometric sculptures and is available in pendant, wall and small ceiling light versions.
Ginger
marset > Floor lamp
Wood is a great ally of cozy lighting. It is a material that is hard to mold, a challenge that the Ginger collection neatly resolves. The combination of sheets of wood and paper pressed together under high pressure achieves a laminate that appears almost entirely flat, which discreetly lights up spaces with indirect light.
The W
marset > Ceiling lamp
Unfold the light or fold it. The latest from PerezOchando is a flexible, large-format lamp designed to adapt to the different lighting requirements in large spaces.A large black vertical structure is the main shaft from which a number of rods emerge; some can be moved upwards to expand the light and others downwards to focus it. The rods all have a suspended spotlight that projects the light downwards or in a large, sharp beam. The cylindrical spotlights – with an inner ring that comes in ivory, terracotta or gold – spread the light evenly. This decorative light, with an extremely graphic profile that’s easy to outline, takes its inspiration from an old-fashioned winding machine: used to wind thread or wire around an axis and form a ball. Designers Pedro Ochando and Claudia Pérez have no interest in the machine’s function, rather in its shape, which enables vertical movement with a horizontal effect. A light, sober and functional design with great presence that can change shape, opening to extend the light up to a diameter of 2 metres for large spaces, or folding up to 1.2 metres in diameter to focus on a smaller area. The designers say that standing under the open lamp feels like being below a dome of light. The key feature is that, whatever its size, it always provides exceptional ambient lighting.
Elipse
marset > Floor lamp
Elipse proposes a change in plane: illumination from the bottom up in this new floor lamp for outdoor spaces by Josep Lluís Xuclà.Embracing simplicity, its design consists of an aluminium tube with two openings that allow the light to be projected from the top and to escape from the bottom. The opening at the top features an irregular shape, an aesthetic detail visible when the lamp is off and greatly enhanced when it is on, as a perfect ellipse is traced on the lamp itself, standing out in the darkness. The interior of the tube is white and, when illuminated, the light grows and comes alive, as the lamp itself almost seems to disappear, and only the light remains. Meanwhile, at the bottom the light escapes, and the base that supports functions as a reflective screen, such that the light seems to float. In expansive outside settings this lamp enhances the light that it emits as it interplays with whatever it illuminates: a tree, a garden, a wall, or a façade. Available with graphite grey or brown in two heights: 48 and 79 cm. Elipse functions as a single lighting element, or in combination with several at the same time. This collection also offers an outdoor wall version.
Funiculí
marset > Floor lamp
The Funiculí is one Marset’s most emblematic lamps. Its design is over 30 years old, but is still just as modern and functional as the day it was designed. Yet there’s one avenue that remains unexplored.Heir to the first Funiculí, we offer a version with a fabric shade, a design that Lluís Porqueras first conceived in 1979 but that is only now seeing the light of day. Respecting the initial design to the fullest, only its proportions have been updated. In the fabric version, the cloth on the shade unlocks the light, allowing it to filter through and better illuminate the space. It shares the same structure as the original, so you can easily adjust the lamp to your desired height. The essence of both lamps continues to be their simplicity, but this design is chic and classical, perhaps even more sophisticated than the original. This collection comes in floor, table and wall versions and two colours, beige or white, with the black structure.
Bohemia
marset > Ceiling lamp
The Bohemia is unique. At first glance, it appears to be made of blown glass—but its size made this option untenable. Its designer, Joan Gaspar, overcame this difficult challenge by opting for polycarbonate instead.The result is an exciting, organic, translucent profile that integrates two volumes into a single shape. This allows for a large shade in different colors that don’t interfere with the interior, which is always white, giving of impeccable lighting with no color bleed. When it’s on, the Bohemia shines a white light downward, while also enhancing the shade with subtle hues and shadows. This interplay between shadow and light defines the two volumes. The Bohemia is bright and striking, with an exceptional light that aims to surprise all viewers.
