Mathieu Matégot spent much of his career asking what a functional object could become when treated with the seriousness of sculpture. The Obello Portable Lamp answers that question quietly. Its form carries the proportional confidence of mid-century modernism without nostalgia, arriving instead as something altogether present. Freed from the cord, the Obello moves with its user. A rechargeable battery system and touch-sensitive dimmer, spanning three brightness levels, give it a range that few portable lamps achieve without sacrificing considered form. The silhouette is compact but not diminutive, holding its own on a side table, a desk, or an outdoor surface at dusk. Rechargeable battery with touch-sensitive dimming across three levels Available in Black, White, and International Orange Equally suited to interior and outdoor settings Designed by Mathieu Matégot for GUBI The colorway choices are not incidental. International Orange, in particular, recalls Matégot's own graphic boldness and his affinity for color as a structural element rather than a decorative finish. Each finish reads differently across the lamp's curved geometry, making colorway selection a genuine design decision. Show more
