Artemide Demetra Professional Wall Lamp
The Demetra family is expanded with two new versions to meet varying usage requirements: Demetra Micro and Demetra Professional. While flow emission varies in Demetra Professional, its size is identical to the classical version. It was designed to address the need for a task light with greater flows allowing to obtain high illuminance on the working top. With the advanced LED technology and the adoption of smart elementary solutions, maximum performance is ensured in a minimal product. Its look is the typical essential and linear one of Demetra, but its head is a more complex optical device, designed for more powerful LEDs also through painstaking study of thermal science. The aluminum bottom of the head’s body works as a heatsink by taking shape and folding inside the head to accommodate the LED, however without contact and therefore without creating a heat bridge with the top. This allows maximum dissipation, and therefore the use of a high-power COB LED, without affecting its functionality deriving from operation and from direct user relation with the lamp. The top of its head can be safely touched without contact with high temperatures. Emission is controlled by a reflector that slightly protrudes from the head’s profile and designs perfect illuminance on the top to create a work station with a high colour yield (Cri 90). The Demetra family becomes more complete to satisfy all the needs of different application fields with flexible and comprehensive solutions, as well as with specific and dedicated ones.

Naoto Fukasawa
Japan, 1956
Naoto Fukasawa was born in Yamanashi, Japan, in 1956 and graduated from Tama Art University in 1980. His career began at Seiko Epson, where he designed products such as wrist TVs and mini printers using micro-technology.
He then moved to the United States and in 1989 joined the San Francisco design firm ID Two, the predecessor to IDEO. There, he worked on a number of products related to Silicon Valley's computing and electronics industry. He was also involved in the development of a design language and design concept for Apple.
Fukasawa has worked on product development for many well-known brands and companies around the world, winning numerous awards for his efforts. His affiliation with Magis produced the Déjá-vu family of home furnishings, which is distinguished by its use of D-shaped aluminum extrusions. "This one distinctive extrusion enabled us to create a whole family of products," says Fukasawa.
In 2007 the Déjá-vu chair won Magis the Interior Innovation Award (Best Item), IMM, Cologne and in 2008 it was nominated for the Designpreis der Bundesrepublik in Germany.
Founded in Milan by Ernesto Gismondi and Sergio Mazza in the 1960s, Artemide is a worldwide leader in lighting design, committed to technological innovation, research, and human interaction. Artemide aligned with the Memphis Design Movement and was an early proponent of LED technology. Ethical conduct and social responsibility are at the heart of Artemide’s values.
Artemide’s expansive catalog spans Logico’s organic and elegant hand-made blown glass diffusers to the Castore family’s clean and simple spheres. They have created award-winning, iconic collaborations with some of the world’s most talented designers, including Naoto Fukasawa, David Chipperfield, Zaha Hadid, Jean Nouvel, Karim Rashid, and Herzog & De Meuron, upholding Italy’s reputation for excellence and innovation.
