In the shape of a small curved lunar disc, IO is a wall light with dual Led light emission. IO appears almost suspended, very close to the wall but never close enough to touch it; positioned at a distance that allows the light to gently caress the wall with an intimate skimming effect. Elegant and minimalist, it is equipped with a mount with a dual rotating axis. is allows the diffuser to be rotated by 360°, directing it exactly where the light is required. In addition to rotating, the diffuser also moves up and down, opening and closing the light beams to adjust to individual requirements.

In 1881 Luigi Fontana starts his business in Milan, manufacturing float glass for the construction industry. As the century draws to a close, the company is producing refined bespoke and one-off glass furnishing accessories.
Gio Ponti, former founding editor of Domus magazine, is invited to take over the company’s art direction in 1931. An eclectic character who is a key player in the cultural ferment of that period, Ponti is also one of the founders of ADI (the Italian Industrial Design Association). He curates the Milan Triennale events on various occasions, lectures at the Milan Polytechnic, and designs both public and private buildings, furnishings and objects that become part of the history of architecture and design.
Several of the pieces he designs for FontanaArte are still in production, including the 0024, Bilia, Pirellina, and Pirellone lamps, and the Tavolino 1932 coffee table.
