Munich, March 2022: Mito gioia: Is it a three-dimensional sculpture, kinetic marvel or a captivating light-making machine? Once again Occhio is making design history. With the Mito gioia table and reading luminaire series, the premium lighting company has opened entirely new horizons. The synthesis of design and innovation is as extraordinary as the joy moving the luminaires smoothly, directing the light with simple gestures and making the adjustments one desires – a magical experience.

Pure joy in movement
Occhio has named the flagship of its new Mito gioia luminaire series equilibrio, Italian for “balance”. gioia equilibrio is a kinetic sculpture created to grace the desks of the executives of this world – or sophisticated office spaces in our homes. Its sculptural design speaks for itself: Each new position enriches a never-ending sequence of exciting forms.
The exquisite, customisable materials and signature »cut« make the distinctive luminaire head an unmistakable member of the successful Mito series. The head of gioia equilibrio glides on its body – fully free to move with no restriction. But its flexibility doesn’t stop there: The entire luminaire can be rotated in every direction and freely moved upwards and downwards. The light always shines exactly where it’s needed – thanks to the luminaire’s two interlocking arms and asymmetrical light output with a radius of up to 180 centimetres. By adjusting the luminaire’s height, you can create light that’s close and focused or distant and diffused. This luminaire is a mechanical masterpiece. The complex mechanism behind this intriguing dynamic remains hidden: No screws and no cables ar visible.

Fascinating innovations for a perfect experience of light
A simple hand movement right at the head of the luminaire is all you need to intuitively switch on or dim Mito gioia’s powerful light or to direct the light up or down. A gesture is all that’s required to adjust the light color – from a warm color temperature similar to an incandescent bulb to a cool, stimulating light for working. The »focus light« function lets you focus the light from Mito gioia on a specific area – ideal for relaxed reading or working in the evening. Thanks to the bluetooth control feature Occhio air, you can control your luminaire by app and integrate lighting scenes into your room at any time.

Mito gioia equilibrio makes a clear statement as an iconic light sculpture in a broad range of settings. It looks exquisite on a large desk as well as on a reception desk or sideboard.
Two additional models complement the Mito gioia series: The gioia tavolo, equipped with a one linked arm, is perfect for smaller desks and tables while the gioia lettura offers the same compelling features as a commanding room and reading luminaire.
