It's all about light
Darø design ARCHITECT ARCHOS BONZAI CUBI FIORA GALILEI GISARIO K9 CUBE MERLINA PASO PYRAMIDE TEE TRION TWISTER VIRALO ZARGO Light is more than just light. Proper lighting enhances the beauty shapes, spaces and surroundings and adds depth to the way we experience them. Light infuses us with life and happiness. For three generations, we have been working to design and develop light for the interior decor of homes and workplaces, but most of all: for people. Therefore, we are proud to present a collection of our lamp series: Some are brand new and most feature powerful classic lines. Our vision has always been to design lamps which create value and arouse enthusiasm. The design is determined by the light and the light is determined by its function. The combination of innovative solutions, elegant finish, colours and functions yields a product of enduring value. We want more than just a lamp. We want to show you the light. Therefore, we are more than a design brand. Darø is continuously developing. We design new ways of spreading the light. Our designs follow current trends and meet the needs for pleasant experiences in homes and business settings. We are pleased to welcome you into our bright universe! Thomas Darø CEO
2 GALILEI 42 P1 TOUCH
Darø design spirit of the lamp - since 1969 ZARGO 18 P1 240V When night falls and lamps are switched on, they revitalise a home with light. Moods, colours, light and shadow change spaces and yield new experiences. The spirit of the lamp awakens. To some people, a lamp is just a utility for lighting the home. But to others, the lamp is a sublime manifestation of refined technology, of the control of light itself and embodies one s personality to unify and harmonise the many elements of a home s interior design. Darø creates lamps. Not the kind whose only purpose is to illuminate, but the kind which invigorate, enliven and brighten up a space, even when switched off. Each Darø lamp is unique yet and slightly different from its predecessor and its successor. This is because they are created by hand with love. These differences are more obvious in the glass series. Each glass lampshade is handmade by expert glassblowers. Even if the shape is precisely the same from one lamp to another, there are always subtle differences in the colour, pattern and thickness of the shade which are revealed when the lamp is switched on and the light glows through the glass. The most obvious attractions of a lamp are its exterior and visible shape, but who ever considers what is concealed inside the parts hidden beneath glass and metal? Where the electricity is conducted safely up to the socket and reliably supplied to the light bulb? To Darø, this is the very soul of the lamp so we only use the very best materials in our classic lamps. Every single detail is considered, assessed and tested before being implemented. This is exemplified by the small finishing ring featured on all Darø lamps. It is milled out of a piece of special steel at a Danish machine shop. We could easily have used a cheaper replica, but would never do this. Because we never experiment with the quality concepts established over the decades. And who would ever risk violating the spirit of the lamp? Especially of a lamp intended to please its owner for many years to come. 3

The height of the illuminant in the lamp ensures that people sitting at the table are not dazzled by glare. Galilei is available in different sizes with or without touch dimming. 5
