Katà Métron - PATENT OF INVENTION
Katà Métron finds inspiration in the relationship that lies at the heart of art, architecture and philosophy: measurement.
Mario Cucinella
Katà Métron by Mario Cucinella
The Greek expression “katà métron” means “according to the right measure”. Modular lighting elements permit the creation of an infinite number of combinations and shapes, allowing the design of lighting scenarios that are tailored with respect to the spaces and to the needs of the activities that take place in them. Presented in 2021 with Refractive optical technology, it has evolved to combine different types of light emissions to define increasingly the “right measurement” of light in any type of setting.
Katà Métron thus defines the “right measurement” not only with respect to the spatial layouts but also allowing the dynamism of the setting and activities thanks to the management via Artemide App. The system becomes even more an expression of a sustainable intelligence, attentive to a positive energy balance. The project culture and the shared commitments towards sustainability lead to an innovative and surprising solution.

Alambicco is a modular suspension fixture that captures the beauty of blown glass, playing with transparencies and textures to control and diffuse light.
Osidio is a thin, organic and harmonious chandelier, where everything stems from an optical concept.
Idyllium is a suspension and a floor light where form, structure, and illumination merge into a single, dynamic presence.
Ixa is a complete, transversal family whose composition begins with the intelligence of a spherical head with a 360° freedom of movement.
The Unterlinden family has been expanded with new versions based on its characteristic head.
Alphabet of Light is a language of light, not only the design of an object but also the development of a strong idea: communicating through light with simplicity and freedom.
The characteristic aluminum head of the Unterlinden indoor family grows in a version with a 17 cm diameter instead of 11 cm, to obtain superior light performance and give rise to a perfect version
Se|eS wants to become a spatial palindrome which hides itself in illuminating and reflecting its surroundings.
Dreispitz has a linguistic simplicity that becomes its uniqueness: through the synthesis of productive and compositional intelligence, it enables the light to perform at its best in a wide variety
Vea is a floor lamp designed for both indoor and outdoor use. It comes in ifferent heights, accommodating both interior settings and larger outdoor areas.
Funivia is a functional network of tangible and intangible relations that is free and inclusive and can evolve through the cooperation of its elements.
Arctic is a collection of lamps that reflect and deconstruct reality, enganced through their own light, natural light, and the surrounding enviroment.
First introduced in 1975, the Sintesi lamp was the first Artemide product signed by its founder Ernesto Gismondi.
BIG’s idea is once again transposed into a product that looks essential but it is rich of technological innovation instead, thanks to the Artemide know-how.
