An exciting project<\/strong> has just been concluded for the new house of Elettra Lamborghini<\/strong>, resulting in the installation of a lighting fixture dedicated to the majestic staircase<\/strong> of Elettra\u2019s new house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It took us six working months<\/strong>, between the design phase and the final installation, which involved all team members of Patrizia Volpato.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s take a closer look at the phases of this monumental project<\/strong> and at the innovative solutions<\/strong> studied by the technical staff of Patrizia Volpato so as to give shape to an idea expressed by Elettra<\/strong>, as well as at the techniques used to respect the design of the house and the architectural characteristics of the area where the multi-light pendants<\/strong> were installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ELETTRA\u2019S WISH: \u201cI WOULD LIKE A MURANO GLASS CHANDELIER
WITH FACETED CRYSTAL SPHERES\u201d<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s easy to say \u201ca chandelier<\/em><\/strong>\u201d yet this specific item is not a simple ceiling light<\/strong>, actually it really is a cascade of light<\/strong>, 9 meters long<\/strong>, developed on three levels<\/strong>, with an important architectural constraint: the presence of a skylight, the width of which corresponds to the diameter of the area of the staircase and that actually represented an important conditioning for the fixing of the lighting body; the Volpato team solved this with highly innovative solutions. But let\u2019s start from the beginning!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were therefore saying that everything started with an Instagram message<\/strong> and with a first confrontation where Elettra<\/strong> expressed her needs and a basic idea from which the creative team of Patrizia Volpato<\/strong> started to develop this project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The existence of the dome from where natural light irradiates within the environment, creates a surprise effect and an opening towards the sky and the outside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are here talking of an architectural element of great relevance<\/strong> within the building which had to be absolutely maintained and actually glorified.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, the lighting item had to embody<\/strong> several characteristics such as: modernity,<\/strong> preciousness<\/strong>, history<\/strong> and tradition<\/strong> yet at the same it had to transfer a sense of exclusivity<\/strong> and unicity<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creativity, technology, innovative ideas merged into this project to give life to a lighting installation<\/strong> reflecting great beauty and elegance<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

THE LIGHTING FIXTURE: FROM THE TECHNICAL DRAWING
TO THE CREATION OF A PROTOTYPE IN SCALE<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The project phases were implemented with a great collaborative and participation attitude, also thanks to a constant and timely communication<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of a WhatsApp chat enabled all involved parties to be always updated on every detail and on every request. Also, the work-in-progress phases and the creative solutions<\/strong> have been discussed and evaluated<\/strong> in a rapid and dynamic manner<\/strong>, without the need of formal communications that could have represented an obstacle in the transmission of ideas and information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once the development of the technical project was done, once the fixing solutions to the ceiling had been found and once the way to suspend the cables in the desired area was conceptualized, the imagery became \u201cvisible\u201d, with a technical design of the pendant lighting fixture<\/strong> that gave shape to what had started off as a simple idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The method used to fix the hanging light fixture<\/strong> to the ceiling and the fluctuating effect of the spheres<\/strong> within the diameter of the big staircase was obtained by means of tying the pending cables with some rings in methacrylate<\/strong> that could contain the cables and thus regulate the overall width.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These clear methacrylate rings<\/strong> are almost invisible<\/strong>; they camouflage with the actual cables and characterize the whole installation, enabling the spheres to float in the air with an effect of aerial suspension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The creation of a prototype in scale<\/strong> made it possible to visualize the effect given by this clever solution and to decide how, which and at which heights the spheres in blown Murano glass<\/strong> and in faceted crystal<\/strong> could be placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SPHERES IN BLOWN MURANO GLASS AND FACETED CRYSTAL<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The preciosity of the staircase lighting <\/strong>is given, other than by the size and than by the selected technological solutions, also and most of all by the number of unique and original elements<\/strong> that the installation is made of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We here talk of 170 spheres in blown Murano glass<\/strong>, handcrafted by Venetian master glass makers and 69 spheres in faceted crystal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every sphere is different from the others<\/strong> by dimension, transparency, shape and working process. Every element <\/strong>is an authentic precious jewel<\/strong> and guarantees elegance and value to the whole item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The processing of the authentic Venetian glass<\/strong> is a secular artisan process<\/strong> that is handed down from generation to generation, from the master glass maker to the servant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Handcrafted processes give life to unique objects<\/strong> which, by virtue of the manual skills needed in the production process, have small differences between each other. At a first glance these differences can be interpreted as small imperfections yet actually precisely these small differences guarantee the authenticity of the artisan working process<\/strong> and give preciosity to the single elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The richness and the variety of the spheres<\/strong> created for this lighting fixture meant for Elettra Lamborghini make this huge chandelier unique and inimitable<\/strong>, with a height of 9 meters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For sure, the selection of the single spheres<\/strong> and their position was not a simple choice<\/strong> to make<\/strong>, however, thanks to<\/strong> the constant participation<\/strong>, to the availability<\/strong> and to the experience of the team Patrizia Volpato<\/strong>, an excellent result of levity and suspension was reached, with a perfect harmonization within the environment<\/strong>, emphasizing the design and the architectural characteristics of the ceiling with its beautiful dome skylight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, the installation phase<\/strong> was a tricky one and it was directly managed by Loris and Chiara Corr\u00f2<\/strong>, CEO and Business Developer respectively for Patrizia Volpato<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enable technicians to work within safety conditions, a customized platform was created<\/strong>, so that it could be placed and fixed onto the steps of the staircase that develops along the three floors<\/strong> of the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The installation required great attention and the participation of many people \u2013 30 people<\/strong> were involved<\/strong> to develop the entire project \u2013 to be able to place the canopy onto the ceiling and then installed the single cables to which each lighting sphere was fixed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the mounting and installation phase, the positioning of the spheres<\/strong> was changed several times<\/strong>, also with Elettra\u2019s participation<\/strong>, until the result she desired was reached for each of the 9 meters of height of this ceiling light fixture<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the same time also the height corresponding to the methacrylate rings used to contain the pending cables has been calibrated several times until an effect of levity and suspension<\/strong> in the emptiness was reached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The attendance of Loris and Chiara enabled the team to welcome Elettra\u2019s requests<\/strong> promptly and to suggest to her the best solutions<\/strong> so as to obtain the effects she desired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A partecipatory and stimulating collaboration<\/a><\/strong> under all circumstances<\/strong> that appeased the ambitions related to this project and left everyone extremely satisfied.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An important consideration that should be highlighted regarding the making of this impressive lighting<\/strong> item is the technology that has been used so as to obtain a diffuse and warm light that considers energy efficiency, duration and environment sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a matter of fact this item was developed with a last generation LED lighting<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Patrizia Volpato<\/strong>, tradition and innovation<\/strong> are always to be combined together and they represent an indispensable value reflecting the vision of the Brand<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History and tradition of Venetian glass<\/strong> are handed down also by reviewing them in a modern key<\/strong>, which is associated with cutting edge technology<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The making of this lighting item and its installation required: six months of working processes<\/strong>, 30 people <\/strong>involved at all levels, over 2.000 working hours<\/strong>, 170 spheres in blown Murano glass<\/strong>, 69 spheres in faceted crystal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The project developed for the ceiling lighting fixture<\/strong> of Elettra Lamborghini<\/strong> represents all the values<\/strong> of this brand and it is a perfect example of excellence for craftmanship and Made in Italy<\/em> design<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
