Snoopy, an icon reimagined
An enduring legend of lighting design, Snoopy was conceived by Achille and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni in 1967, the perfect embodiment of a tendency to infuse functional design with a sense of humour.
With a silhouette that nods to the most popular comic strip dog of all times, the lamp’s design has remained unchanged, its slanted marble base supporting an enamelled metal shade held in perfect equilibrium.
Typical Castiglioni ingenuity underpins the bright idea behind the lamp, with technology embedded into the base in an innovative move for the time. The Snoopy original with the black shade grew into a collection featuring green and orange versions. The latest addition, with a navy-blue shade, was inspired by a hue used by Achille and Pier Giacomo on their Sciuko lamp for Flos in 1966.
To this day, Snoopy remains the epitome of timeless form with a contemporary edge, proving that great design doesn’t fade, it evolves.
