MIGUEL MILÁ (Barcelona, 1931) for Polinax WT suspension lamp. 1962 Red methacrylate. Delta de Plata ADI-FAD Award 1962. Measurements: 20 cm x 45 cm x 45 cm. Suspension lamp designed in 1962 by Miguel Milá and produced by the firm Polinax. It is characterized by its large and unique two-color lampshade with sinuous curves made of injected methacrylate, cream-colored on the outside and cream white inside. The bulb holder is anchored to a piece also made of methacrylate in the shape of a cross, which in turn is attached to a polished steel cylinder through which the cable runs. With this design Miguel Milá once again demonstrates his ability to imagine new lighting concepts based on simple and logical forms of great functionality and aesthetic beauty. Miguel Milá began his studies at the School of Architecture, although he soon abandoned them to work in the office of Federico Correa and Alfonso Milà. In 1958 he set up his own business as an industrial and interior designer. In the early sixties he witnessed the birth of Spanish industrial design, and throughout his long career he has been awarded the ADI FAD Delta de Oro prize six times, the first time in 1961, for the "TMC" lamp. He was also awarded the National Design Award in 1987, the Sant Jordi Cross in 1993, and in 2010 the CoNCA National Culture Award.

MIGUEL MILÁ (Barcelona, 1931) par Gres. Coffee table. Glass and iron. In good general condition. Glass in perfect condition, patina on the chrome set. Delta de Plata ADI/FAD Award 1963. Measurements: 38 x 105 x 69,5 cm. One of the first pieces of furniture designed by Miguel Milá and published by Gres in 1962, although the first prototype dates from 1960. The rectangular tempered and beveled glass top is supported by a metal structure composed of four legs of chromed iron plates attached to a thin black iron stretcher frame. This table is characterized by its lightness and transparency, as it responds to a request from Milá's brother for a coffee table that would not limit the view of the carpet.

MIGUEL MILÁ (Barcelona, 1931) for Tramo. Floor lamp TMC. 1958. Chromed metal. Delta de Oro ADI-FAD Award 1961. Measurements: 169 cm (height) x 29 x 40 cm; 30 cm (lampshade diameter). The TMC (Tramo Móvil Cromada) is undoubtedly the most iconic design of Miguel Milá's fruitful career. Its history began in 1956 with the design of a variable-height lamp for the interior design project of his aunt Nuria Sagnier's studio, and it has undergone numerous revisions and modifications over more than fifty years. The first definitive design to be marketed was in 1960, produced by the publishing company Tramo (Trabajos molestos), a company founded by Milá himself. The TMC is an ingenious floor lamp design that allows the height of the light to be chosen by means of a handle with seven anchor points, which acts both as a support for the circular white methacrylate shade and as a regulation system through the chromed shaft, the latter attached to a second structural half with four black-painted iron blades that form the base. An exercise of intelligent and balanced design that endows the TMC with simplicity and functional efficiency. When nobody in Spain knew what it meant to be a designer, despite the fact that, as we all know now, any object is designed (with or without a signature behind it), Miguel Milá was already a designer, that is, he tried to make everyday objects make our lives easier and happier, which are the basis of all innovation. To innovate is to set in motion an imaginative and productive chain: to imagine new forms and new uses and to make it possible, through craftsmanship and industry, to bring them to fruition, choosing the right materials and techniques. He did it from the beginning, that's why he is a master. Many of his pieces were born predestined to become iconic, such as the Cesta (1962), TMM and TMC (1961) lamps.
