Ipe is a family of wall lamps providing indirect light both upward and downward, which guarantees an excellent visual comfort as well as an unexpected luminous effect. The shape of the device draws its inspirations from metal beams used in architecture, hence the name of the lamp. It is original and yet discreet; its small dimensions and the fact that it is easy to assemble make it a very practical lamp both at home and in public spaces.
