Shogun Table Lamp
Mario Botta designed the Shogun in 1986 as an exercise in contrast: bold black-and-white stripes wrapped around a diffuser of perforated steel, engineering a precise interplay of light and shadow that reads as both graphic object and atmospheric instrument.
Part of the Artemide Masterpieces Collection, the Shogun holds a place in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, a recognition that speaks to its cultural weight well beyond the domestic interior.
Its form is architectural in sensibility, reflecting Botta's training under Le Corbusier and Louis Kahn, where geometry and materiality were treated as inseparable concerns. The perforated steel diffuser casts structured pools of light, while the signature striped pattern anchors the lamp as a graphic presence even when unlit. Updated with LED technology, the Shogun carries its original vision into contemporary practice without compromise.
