До открытия Олимпийских игр осталась неделя, а потому в сегодняшней викторине, коснемся, пожалуй, спорта. В 1970-1979 гг. Масанори Умэда работал консультантом в дизайн-студии «Olivetti», где и познакомился с Этторе Соттсассом, после чего вступил в группу «Memphis» и создал кое-что крайне интересное (а что именно, вы вскоре узнаете в воскресном «Вестнике постмодернизма»). В 1979 г., незадолго до сотрудничества с мемфисцами, Умэда спроектировал для компании «iGuzzini» семейство светильников, включавшее как минимум настенные и настольные лампы, которые теперь днем с огнем не сыщешь и название которых мы, по пятничному обыкновению, предлагаем вам отгадать.

With just one week before the Olympic Games, how about taking a look at sports-related designs in our usual Friday quiz tonight? The years 1970-1979 saw Masanori Umeda work as a design consultant with Olivetti’s design studio. He met Ettore Sottsass there and soon joined Memphis for a brief but very productive stint (if you don’t, you’ll soon learn why in our next installment of Sunday Postmodernism). In 1979, however, a couple of years before his collaboration with Memphis, Umeda designed a series of lamps for iGuzzini that included at least these wall sconces and table lamps, which are very hard to come by these days. Typically for a Friday night quiz, we are inviting anyone willing to guess the name of this family of lighting fixtures without googling.
