The VV Cinquanta Suspension is elegant and versatile with two posable direct light sources. With a distinctive dual-stemmed construction, it is a type of kinetic object constructed to take advantage of the principle of equilibrium. Therefore the central pole might find its equilibrium in a way which is not perpendicular to the ceiling. The fixture and the reflectors can be adjusted to many different positions, enabling a wide variety of both downward and upward lighting at the same time. The invitingly playful design encourages dynamic lighting compositions. The VV Cinquanta reflectors are made of enameled spun aluminium, available in original Vittoriano Viganò colors.

Vittoriano Viganò was a versatile designer who aimed to improve human and social life. He worked on different scales: from industrial design to architecture, from interior design to urban planning. He was the leading Italian figure of ‘Brutalism’. He grew up as the son of an artist and became an architect. He collaborated with his friend Gino Sarfatti, the founder of Arteluce, and designed the VV Cinquanta lamps. He won the Italian Republic President Prize for Architecture in 199
Alessandro Sarfatti, inspired by his father's belief in perpetual progress, founded Astep, a company intertwining three generations of design ethos with modern lighting technology. With a rich family history in design, Alessandro's grandfather, Gino Sarfatti, revolutionized the lighting industry through Arteluce. His father, Riccardo, alongside his mother Sandra Severi, further innovated by blending design and technology with Luceplan. Astep creates new products for the home – objects that bring digital technologies to the forefront of our domestic lives. In addition, Astep revitalizes iconic works of Gino Sarfatti and Vittoriano Viganò, carrying on the Sarfatti family's enduring avant-garde spirit.
