Designed in 1964 by Miguel Milá for the firm Polinax, the sconces model Max Bill (named as a tribute to Swiss architect - industrial designer Max Bill) stand out for their timeless aesthetics. Made of molded methacrylate in green, its design of clean lines and balanced proportions reflects the search for functionality and simplicity characteristic of the author. It provides a warm and diffused light. They are a benchmark of modern Spanish design of the 1960s.
The Max Bill lamp was the first product designed by Milá expressly for Polinax and was designed for the interior design of the Hotel de Mar in Mallorca, the work of José Antonio Coderch.
Miguel Milá began his studies at the School of Architecture, although he soon abandoned them to work in the office of Federico Correa and Alfonso Milà. In 1958 he set up his own business as an industrial and interior designer. In the early sixties he witnessed the birth of Spanish industrial design, and throughout his long career he has been awarded the ADI FAD Delta de Oro prize six times, the first time in 1961, for the "TMC" lamp. He was also awarded the National Design Award in 1987, the Sant Jordi Cross in 1993, and in 2010 the CoNCA National Culture Award.
These sconces are in working condition and in their original vintage item, so they show signs of minimal age appropriate wear.
Dimensions
33 x 24,5 x 36 cm.
