Illumination is about storytelling, atmosphere, and transformation
Pedrali’s Salone 2025 theme, #PedraliShiftingPerspectives, underscores a renewed focus on modularity, sustainability, and seamless integration of design with daily life. Filicudi and Kawara exemplify this vision, offering lighting solutions that are sculptural yet functional, engineered to enhance not just space, but the experience of those who inhabit it.
At the intersection of minimalist beauty and advanced functionality, Pedrali introduces two standout lighting solutions at Salone del Mobile.Milano 2025: the Filicudi portable lamp by Andrea Pedrali and the Kawara modular lighting collection designed by Yusuke Kawai. Both collections reflect the Brand’s enduring vision—crafting versatile, sustainable, and aesthetically compelling designs that resonate in both residential and contract environments.
Filicudi: lighting that transforms and multitasks
Designed by Andrea Pedrali, Filicudi is a rechargeable lamp that bridges utility and style. Made from extruded aluminium and featuring a polycarbonate diffuser, Filicudi is elegant in its simplicity, but it’s what happens when it’s not illuminating that sets it apart.
When the LED diffuser is removed for charging, the lamp’s column cleverly transforms into a watertight flower vase, turning it into a sculptural and practical element that complements any table setting—especially in hospitality and fine-dining environments. Its multi-charging system allows up to ten lamps to be magnetically stacked and charged simultaneously, eliminating cable clutter and optimizing space—a game-changer for commercial venues.
Beyond its compact proportions and tactile grooves, Filicudi offers three dimmable brightness levels, controlled via a touch sensor, making it adaptable to a variety of settings and moods. Available in a palette of powder-coated and anodised finishes, the lamp is designed to perform indoors and outdoors alike.
Kawara: a modular ode to Japanese elegance
Drawing inspiration from the traditional Japanese kawara tiles, designer Yusuke Kawai created the Kawara collection—a family of lighting fixtures available in pendant (horizontal and vertical) and floor-mounted versions.
Crafted in extruded aluminium, Kawara is available in either a continuous linear form or in articulated modules linked by minimalist joining rings. This modularity enables precise directional lighting, allowing users to sculpt spaces with beams angled at 45°, downwards, or upwards toward the ceiling. The aesthetic is refined, thanks to delicate grooves running along the lamp’s curved back, adding a quiet sophistication to its minimal silhouette.
Kawara also features an integrated LED strip with dimmer, providing nuanced control over brightness and ambience. Available in brass, champagne, satin bronze, and powder-coated colours, the lighting collection slips seamlessly into a variety of interior design schemes—perfect for workspaces, lounges, dining rooms, or galleries.
Design that Evolves with Purpose
Pedrali’s Salone 2025 theme, #PedraliShiftingPerspectives, underscores a renewed focus on modularity, sustainability, and seamless integration of design with daily life. Filicudi and Kawara exemplify this vision, offering lighting solutions that are sculptural yet functional, engineered to enhance not just space, but the experience of those who inhabit it.
Whether it’s the ambient glow of Filicudi on a terrace bistro table or the architectural rhythm of Kawara lights guiding a gallery corridor, these collections illustrate that illumination is not just about visibility—it’s about storytelling, atmosphere, and transformation.
