JOAN ANTONI BLANC (Tortosa, 1940) for Tramo. Table lamp "Seta/Tulip", 1968. Double plastic lampshade in yellow and white inside that produces a spectacular light. Very good overall condition with some signs of age. Selection adi fad. Measurements: 56 cm (height) x 36 cm (lampshade diameter). The lamp "Seta/Tulip" is distinguished by its semi-oval lampshade that resembles the cap of a mushroom, as well as by the circular foot that rises slightly in its central area to join with the cylindrical shaft. It was published by Tramo (Trabajos molestos), a company founded by the iconic Catalan designer Miguel Milá. Joan Antoni Blanc was one of the founders of the Eina school and one of the main advocates of the need to incorporate technological knowledge and to orient design in industrial applications. He specialized in the field of design, specializing in furniture and lighting applied to the domestic, urban and office environment, although he has also developed several designs related to nautical, motoring and motorcycling. In 1972 he created "Estudi de Disseny Blanc", incorporating as assistant Pau Joan Vidal, an industrial designer trained at the Massana and Elisava schools, who later became his partner. He was also president of the Association of Professional Designers between 1986 and 1989 and participated in the creation of BCD.
