The Gorilla series comprises sculptural lamps that merge organic abstraction with a refined study of form and surface. Drawing upon a conceptual lineage from the biomorphic modernism of Constantin Brancusi and Henry Moore, the works channel a quietly potent presence: solid yet supple, assertive yet contemplative. Their silhouettes—sinuous, asymmetrical, and in constant visual flux—evoke the dormant vitality and dignified poise of gorillas at rest

The shifting profiles of the lamps compel movement around them, as each angle reveals a different relationship between mass and void, surface and shadow. With their irregular volumes and vegetal, almost primordial geometries, the works sit comfortably between sculpture and design. They are objects of utility, but also of enduring contemplation—intimate monuments scaled to domestic life

Each base is cast in a single piece of patinated bronze using the lost-wax technique, the result of a rigorous artisanal process in Italy. A hand-sculpted plaster model is translated into wax, then cast in bronze and finished with a naturally reactive patina. The surfaces deepen the works’ tactile and visual richness, revealing subtle gradations in tone and texture. In custom editions, a hand-applied 24-karat gold leaf finish introduces a heightened dialogue between materiality and light

Simone Fanciullacci

Born Genova, Italy, 1982

A Milanese designer, Fanciullacci considers his practice to be artistic research on THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FORM AND SPACE. THE AIM BEHIND THIS QUEST IS TO UNDERSTAND THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE VOLUMES THAT GIVE LIFE TO A FORM, THE RHYTHM THAT CHARACTERIZES THEM, AND THE sense of BALANCE or DISEQUILIBRIUM THAT THEY EVOKE. His extraordinary sculptural works EMERGe FROM an EXPLORATory process OF HANDS-ON experimentation IN SCULPTURE, COLLAGE, DRAWING, and technical innovation. In This AESTHETIC AND POETIC INVESTIGATION, Fanciullacci finds FREEdom in playing WITH DIFFERENT LANGUAGES AND MATERIALS, eventually giving LIFE TO his UNIQUE WORKS AND OBJECTS

Fanciullacci produces his singular works in CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH the finest ITALIAN CRAFTSMEN. Because of his long lasting collaborative relationships with several local artisans, Fanciullacci is able to explore a range of ancient and innovative techniques alike, along with the possibilities of exquisite materials, such as bronze, aluminum, marble, stone and solid wood. each work is fully customizable and is crafted WITH THE AIM OF LASTING FOR generations, MAKing THE ACT OF COLLECTING A SUSTAINABLE CULTURAL STATEMENT

After receiving a degree in product design from the politecnico di milano, Fanciullacci launched his eponymous atelier in 2017. His work has been featured in premier design publications and has received numerous acknowledgements, including the IF Design Award, the Good Design Award, and an honorable mention for the XXII Compasso d’Oro Award.
