Artemide Nur 1618 Suspension Lamp
Although minimalistic, Nur has a decorative valence. Its contemporary robust dome-shaped diffuser adds a touch of personality, filling any modern interior with a soft, subtle light.
A system for the metamorphosis of light, Nur Suspension has a sleek, contemporary dome shape that provides direct downlighting, with a sanded glass top that also allows a softer, more subtle diffused light to escape. Nur creates indirect light accompanied by a subtle "halo" effect on the ceiling.

Ernesto Gismondi
Italy, 1931
Gismondi was born in 1931 in Italy, and studied aeronautical and missile engineering in Milan and Rome. In 1959, he founded the lighting company Artemide with Sergio Mazza. From 1970 onwards he designed a number of lights, including the Tholos Wall Lamp in 1979 and the Zen in 1988. He became established as an international designer, participating in “Memphis,” an avant-garde movement that brought about a profound evolution in the design sector both in Italy and worldwide.
Over the years, under his guidance, the Artemide Group saw its international reach increase, making it one of the main players in the lighting design sector, a role that earned him important acknowledgements, including the Compasso d’Oro Award for Career Achievements (1994) and the European Design Prize (1997).
In 2008 he received the Ernst & Young Prize, “Entrepreneur of the Year” for the Innovation Category and the President of the Italian Republic, appointed him “Cavaliere del Lavoro,” an Italian award given to important figures in industry.
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.
