PENCIL selected by ADI Design Index 2022

PENCIL selected by ADI Design Index 2022

The PENCIL light module, by Zafferano, designed by Federico de Majo, was selected in the publication ADI Design Index 2022, for the Lighting Design category.
The selection includes the objects that will be proposed to the international jury of the Compasso D’Oro 2024, The most prestigious award for the production and design quality of goods, services, processes and systems of Italian design.
Pencil is a battery-operated portable and rechargeable lighting module, available in three sizes. Thanks to its dedicated accessories, it can become a floor, table, wall and suspension lamp.

Equipped with a LED light source, Pencil creates an intense, well-directed light ideal for public and private spaces, also outdoors (IP65). Its fixture, with a pentagonal cross-section, is made of white, corten or dark grey painted extruded aluminium. The diffuser is in satin opal polycarbonate. Its 4-step dimmer touch control allows you to accurately adjust the lighting in a room and choose the light colour temperature, 2700-3150-4000K. Pencil can be recharged in two ways: either with the battery charger (page 10) or in the docking station, connected to a battery charger (page 12). Thanks to a state-of-the-art LED circuit board, an electronic control system monitors the remaining autonomy and ensures a constant luminous flux until the battery runs out. Recharging is therefore optimised and always properly done. The battery lasts 8h – 58h, depending on the luminous flux setting. At 3.16A, recharging times are 6h for the small module, 9h for the medium module and 12h for the large module.

The ADI Design Index 2022 publication was presented on November 14 at the ADI Design Museum in Milan, coinciding with the inauguration of the exhibition of the selected products that can be visited until November 27.
