Charlotte Perriand’s Nemo Lighting Potence Pivotante transforms a simple perpendicular arm into a highly functional wall light. Inspired by the boom of a sailboat, the slender steel arm projects from the wall and rotates horizontally to describe an arc of nearly 180 degrees. The result is a pared-back gesture that places light exactly where it is needed without visual noise.
In the Mini variant and larger formats, the exposed lamp and black tubular construction feel both industrial and elegant, ideal over dining tables, along gallery walls or as a minimal reading light beside a sofa. Potence Pivotante embodies Perriand’s belief in accessible, honest design, turning movement and utility into a quiet statement.
