Lamp, centrepiece and object holder
Welcome is the latest object of desire created by Fabio Novembre for Driade. It is an accessory inspired by the needs of our time where technology has taken over, the same tool performs multiple functions and design becomes an essential part of every element that enters our lives.
Welcome is a portable and rechargeable lamp with direct light emission. At the same time it is a luminous table centrepiece or an object holder useful as a pocket emptier. It is an object that adapts to the home and the life of its inhabitant and that makes hospitality its leitmotif.
Available in white, black and red, Welcome is an almost symmetrical piece which only indulges in an embossed decoration on the stem and base that further underlines its contemporary forms.

"The technology we use in our daily lives has led to a hybridization of functions that is now part of our lives. I’m no longer sure that a lamp has the sole purpose of illuminating" says Art Director Fabio Novembre.
"Perhaps these small objects, that are present in different environments and atmospheres like on a dining table or on a bedside table, could hold other objects, to highlight them or simply help us to have them within reach. Welcome was born from a gesture of inclusion, a happy coexistence of functions for unexpected combinations" adds Novembre.
