Takku, Artemide

Takku is an understated portable battery-powered lamp that can be used as an intimate source of light for the bedside or table-top. Its form is reminiscent of a pin used to temporarily affix notes to a surface, alluding to its inherent portability and flexibility. Takku’s versatility allows it to adapt to spatial layouts that change through time, be it the home-office, indoor/outdoor hospitality settings or a variety of dynamic spaces.

Showcasing its industrial roots, it has an extruded anodised aluminium stem containing a single LED and re-chargeable power source that is optimised for disassembly. The light is reflected off the inside of a formed aluminium head containing an optimised diffuser that distributes the light evenly around the stem, creating an ethereal, floating aesthetic.

Engineered for precision, the weighted base gives the lamp stability and a tactile quality. The light can be dimmed or brightened via a discreet button on the stem and can last up to 32 hours on a single charge. Made from low carbon recycled aluminium, Takku is available in a range of anodised colours and paint finishes and is suitable for indoor and outside use.
