INSPIRED BY CINI&NILS

Cini & amp; Nils was founded in Milan in 1969 on the initiative of two famous designers, Franco Bettonica and Mario Melocchi, who wanted to present their designs directly to the public. From the very beginning, the designer duo offers items inspired by the perfect Italian craftsmanship tradition and the minimalist and functional style of Finnish design. At the historic headquarters of Viale Certosa, the two founders draw products that have gone down in design history, such as sets for bars, tables and desks, a revolving magazine holder, and a gaming table, some of which are in the permanent MoMa collections in New York. The turning point came in 1972 with the Cuboluce project, signed by Franco Bettonica, which marked the company's entry into the lighting sector, a future production center. Passion and dedication, research and innovation combined with the values ​​"made in Italy" have made Cini & amp; Nils one of the leading companies in this field in the world. The careful design is combined with high quality standards, which are primarily aimed at the well-being of the users of the luminaires. In addition to the iconic objects that have been created since the seventies, the Cini & amp; Nils catalog includes new generation products, which are the result of continuous research conducted by the company's research and development laboratory on LED and IoT technologies.

Iconic lamps that made history of Cini & amp; Nils The iconic product par excellence of the Cini & amp; Nils catalog is undoubtedly the Cuboluce table lamp, an idea as simple as it is revolutionary. The lamp is inserted into a technopolymer cube and is turned on or off by opening and closing the lid. Designed for reading in bed, Cuboluce emits a concentrated beam of light for orientation thanks to the cover that acts as a reflector. In addition to the Classic version, Cuboluce is available in the Cuboluce Led, Cuboluce Wireless and special Cuboluce Britto editions, dressed in artwork by artist Romeo Britto, and Cuboluce Special Edition 2020, designed to provide specific help in the fight against Covid- 19.
Collection Gradi, designed by Mario Melocchi and Franco Bettonica, appeared in 1990. The timeless design makes this series of lamps always up to date, so much so that the company offers them again in the catalog in the new LED versions. Simple and elegant, the Gradi consists of a semicircular steel bracket to which an illuminating body is attached, consisting of a tiny cylinder of borosilicate glass and enamel. Gradi is available in Minisoffitto LED and Miniparete LED versions and in a range with halogen lamps.
The Tenso and MiniTenso collections developed since the beginning of the 90s are real practical and functional lighting systems, which have been enriched with new functions over time. The ancestor of the Tenso 2500W is the first 230V cable system, improved on the Tensofariuno model, without a transformer for accent lighting and Tensofaridue, with two points. The strength of the Tenso system lies in mounting accessories such as the Tensoclic, which allow rails to be attached to cables with a simple click. Thanks to the contribution of the designer Luty Bettonica, the collection has been enriched with several versions, such as the MiniTensoOnirico, equipped with linear halogen lamps with a minimalist mood, and TensEsterni, with iridescent or transparent stage balls for outdoor lighting.
