Designed by Gupica for Visionnaire, this is the stunning Aracea lamp and Lucente design lighting project.
Gupica is the brand and artistic identity of Gunilla Zamboni. The brand encompasses a multidisciplinary approach that extends to the decorative arts, interior and product design, contemporary experimentation and craftsmanship. It is renowned for its attention to detail and exquisite balance between contemporary and traditional elements that distinguish each project.
Aracea
Aracea is a lamp that takes inspiration from a liana with large oval and heart-shaped leaves. Both delicate and iconic, Aracea is the result of a reflection between natural/artificial elements as a constant/variant in the rapport between man and nature. Natural shapes become simpler outlining into functional objects.
The LED light source, like lifeblood, passes through the central rib of the leaf producing a type of direct lighting with a possibility of orientation that simulates the natural movements of a leaf and ensuring, at the same time, a visual benefit.
Its modularity allows the declination in different models like, floor lamp, wall, table, hanging and floor-ceiling lamp, that make up the Araceae collection.

Lucente
The Lucente design lighting collection is inspired by the way light splits and reflects on the faceted surfaces of precious stones, creating mesmerising luminous effects.
The light-diffusing bodies of the lamps, which look like coloured gemstones in sophisticated yet simple shapes, are made of a secondary raw material obtained via the recycling of PMMA – commonly known as Plexiglass – reborn with a completely new appearance.
The opaqued LED light source, passing through the stones, produces a diffused light that brings out transparency and colours, and a unique graduated appearance – a beam of light that radiates in the room in a dynamic chromatic spectrum.
