€ 681,00

“Colorín is a lamp that was dreamed rather than designed. At that time, I designed wooden toys (construction toys, vehicles) for small children, using turned woods lacquered in basic colours and assembled with simple systems such as rods, dowels…,” explains designer Eduardo Albors. “I suppose that, through what they call ‘professional deformation’, I imagined this lamp in my dreams. I got up and I drew it just as the final result would be.” Colorín is a table lamp created by Eduardo Albors in 1979 and produced by the Valencian lighting firm Lamsar. Comprising simple geometric shapes assembled and lacquered in primary colours, this lamp, as is completely logical after the explanation given by its inventor, is reminiscent of wooden construction toys. Eduardo Albors was born in Valencia in 1949. He studied Applied Arts and Business and is an Industrial Designer. Albors founded Caps I Mans in 1972. As part of the group Caps i Mans, founded by Albors, the designer created pieces for day-to-day use, with pleasant and very colourful shapes. Toys for adults that anticipated the first productions of the Memphis group in Milan, inspired and founded by the architect and designer Ettore Sottsass in 1980 (by way of an anecdote, the name of this group is taken from the Dylan song “Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again”). Cap i Mans, created in 1972, was one of the pioneering design groups in Spain, which would later be joined by the designers José Juan Belda and brothers Nacho and Luis Lavernia. The group worked on industrial, graphic and interior design for various companies of different sectors. For Lamsar he designed lamps from 1972 until 1980. Dimensions 30 × 30 × 40 cm
