1. The pilot show-room in Varese




Back to the top


The success of the pilot plant experimented on at the showroom in Varese dictated the kind of lighting system used for all the retail spaces belonging to the "Frette" chain. The ceiling-mounted appliances incorporated in the architecture are fitted with fluorescent lights, which combine with halogen bulbs to provide the main lighting throughout the premises and direct lighting on the displays, guaranteeing high luminescence levels on both the vertical and horizontal planes and a slight chiaro-scuro contrast. The presence of some "furnishing" lamps reveals the product´s purpose: private to serve, brighten up and embellish our homes.
