Sottsass Ultrafragola mirror - Cinema4d - Corona 3d model

The Ultrafragola mirror/lamp with its sinuous shape, evocative of wavy female hair, belongs to the Gray Furniture series, a complete bedroom and living room, designed by Ettore Sottsass for Poltronova and presented at the third edition of Eurodomus in 1970. All but Ultrafragola remained at the prototype stage.

«As for the lights that come out of the Gray Furniture, don't the tombs always have flickering lights that illuminate the sadness of the wandering spaces in the dusty valley? And don't submarines have flickering green lights in their bellies? The lights are thought to come out of the fiberglass body, like the shining white of the white skin of the breasts, or the shining red of the tip of the penis in pornographic nights, something like that, I mean something like the Japanese fireflies transforming the May nights in solid matter. Can there be anything more ridiculous?” [Ettore Sottsass jr., 1970]
