Easily attached to several different parts of a bicycle, the two small lights – white for the front, red for the rear - are switched on and off with just one click. The range of the beam is wide enough to reach vehicles, even if the light is tilted down.
Designed to stay securely in place even on the bumpiest road, the lights give the option of a steady, slow or fast flashing beam, also selected with an easy interaction. Once getting off the bike, the lights are easily removed and may be linked together and slipped in a pocket. Lucetta embodies maximum utility and versatility.
It is designed to take as little space as possible and to stay with other small personal objects of everyday usage – keys, mobile phone, loose change – that 'inhabit' our pockets. The object is simple; it doesn't have a technical look but a friendly feature, 'clean' and yet a bit mysterious.
Emanuele Pizzolorusso (1981) is an Italian designer based in Helsinki. After founding his studio in 2011, he has worked with several international clients as both a concept and industrial designer.
