This intent is reflected in the playful and imaginative forms of its streetlights. Metal models F. Cooper, created in the form of a serpent reminiscent of old electrical cables.

Technical innovations such as Touch Tronic transformer that allows the ignition, extinction and reduction of light touch, subsequently contributed to the recognition and success of the designer.

 

In 2010, Ingo Maurer received the Design Award of the Federal Republic of Germany. Bulb table lamp was followed by other creations of the company in the most important design museum in the world, the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
