Fly is a versatile decorative lamp, ideal for residential settings, offices, kitchens, and commercial spaces. The floor version stands out for its sculptural presence, while the wall and pendant versions enhance spaces with focused lighting effects. Fly can be used individually or in series to add rhythm and character to large surfaces.

Available in bi-emission or single-emission versions, it allows for a choice between diffused or directional light. The structure and accessories can be tailored in a wide range of colors, making it ideal for bespoke interior design projects.
Finally, the dimensions can be customized as needed, such as the 6-meter Fly pendant lamp designed to illuminate the new QC Spa of Wonders in New York City.
_in conversation with
Massimiliano Raggi
1. How did the idea for the Fly collection come about? Fly was born from the intuition of a metal profile that Contardi's technical office was working on. I was immediately struck by the potential of this simple element, which, with a few adjustments, could become a lighting object with a strong personality. My idea started there—I drew a vertical line in my notebook, and that was the first sketch of Fly. From that essential stroke, a concept evolved that led to the creation of a versatile collection which, in its purity, embodies a sharp character and unique visual strength.
