MIGUEL MILÁ (Barcelona, 1931) for Polinax
WT suspension lamp. 1962
Red methacrylate.
Delta de Plata ADI-FAD Award 1962.
Measurements: 20 cm x 45 cm x 45 cm.
Suspension lamp designed in 1962 by Miguel Milá and produced by the firm Polinax. It is characterized by its large and unique two-color lampshade with sinuous curves made of injected methacrylate, cherry red on the outside and cream white inside. The bulb holder is anchored to a piece also made of methacrylate in the shape of a cross, which in turn is attached to a polished steel cylinder through which the cable runs. With this design, Miguel Milá once again demonstrates his ability to imagine new lighting concepts based on simple and logical forms of great functionality and aesthetic beauty.
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.
