Light is never still.

In Carlo Scarpa’s reticello glass, it expands, softens and disperses through a delicate weave of white threads suspended within the material itself. What appears to be a simple sphere becomes a study of depth, texture and perception.

Gio Ponti

Floor Lamp mod. 1967, Fontana Arte, Italy, 1950s.

A line, a circle, a beam of light.
In Ponti’s hands, simplicity becomes refinement, and light becomes architecture.

Long after the exhibition has ended, light continues its quiet dialogue with space.

We begin a journey through light, tracing the objects that have shaped its presence through craftsmanship, innovation, and atmosphere.

A delicate architecture of glass, where light seems to bloom from within.

In this space, light becomes a material, shaping the perception of each piece and shifting its identity with every reflection.

Fausto Melotti La componente floreale, 1972

A fragile balance of line and light, where matter becomes rhythm. In dialogue with the space, the work unfolds quietly between presence and absence.

Light doesn’t fill the space, it measures it.
Tracing surfaces, dissolving edges, and quietly inhabiting the architecture.

VERA, special edition by Davide Groppi for Volumnia.

A presence defined by absence. A lamp that reveals itself only through light.

In its quiet transparency, VERA holds a suspended glow, a small, luminous core that appears as if by illusion, then disappears again into clarity.

An object that does not impose, but unfolds. A gesture of light, essential and fleeting.
