Obello Portable Lamp

Design by Bill Curry

Now available in three new luminous pastel colors, Bill Curry’s mushroom-shaped Obello Lamp continues its journey. Celebrated for his bold use of color and inventive Space Age forms, the American designer first created the lamp in 1971. After its reintroduction by GUBI in 2022, in the color of frosted glass, the design returns in a trio of luminous pastels, each finished with a glossy finish that accentuates its sculptural silhouette. Balancing softness with warmth, this palette extends Curry’s legacy with a fresh, contemporary expression.

OBELLO PORTABLE LAMP IN COLORS

Obello’s sculptural mushroom silhouette becomes a canvas of light and chromatic expression. Mellow Yellow radiates cheer and optimism, filling interiors with warmth and ease. Powder Pink brings gentle intimacy, its rosy hue casting a tactile, romantic glow. Pearl White shimmers with subtle pearlescence, a luminous neutral that captures the timeless elegance of light itself. Together, the three tones form a harmonious palette of luminous pastels, enriching Obello’s sculptural form while amplifying its joyful presence.

BILL CURRY

American designer Bill Curry (1927-1971) captured the zeitgeist of the 1960s and ‘70s with his iconic lamp designs. From his unique Los Angeles vantage point at the meeting point of art, design and engineering, during an era defined by the space race, pop culture and a new forward-looking optimism, he translated the wonder and delight he saw around him into simple yet intelligent ideas with clear visual narratives.
