Clessidra Wall Lamp by Flos was designed by Antonio Citterio, taking its name from the Italian word for hourglass — a direct reference to the fixture's distinctive pinched, waisted silhouette. Clessidra's form narrows at its centre before widening again toward both the wall-mounting point and the outer diffuser edge, producing a wall light with a genuinely sculptural, three-dimensional quality that distinguishes it from more conventional flat-panel or disc-form wall fixtures within Citterio's broader lighting practice for Flos. Its distinctive silhouette makes it an effective accent fixture wherever a stronger formal identity than a minimal alternative is required.
The Clessidra Wall Lamp's hourglass form produces a considered, evenly diffused glow while contributing genuine sculptural interest to the wall surface it occupies, reading as a small architectural object as much as a functional light source. Its distinctive silhouette makes it an effective accent fixture in corridors, stairwells and feature wall applications across residential and hospitality environments seeking wall lighting with a stronger formal identity than a purely minimal alternative. Its sculptural form also functions as a considered decorative accent even when the fixture is not switched on.
Architects and interior designers specifying Clessidra for residential and hospitality wall-lighting applications will find the DWG drawing and CAD block useful for mounting coordination and elevation documentation. The 3D model supports BIM-accurate spatial planning. A distinctive specification for any project requiring sculpturally considered wall lighting from Antonio Citterio., a considered accent for feature wall applications both indoors and out.
Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
