Story
Piero Lissoni
Button is an example of smart simplicity in the hands of Piero Lissoni. Its clean, circular form gives a strong graphic presence on ceilings and walls alike, with a touch of playful functionality.
In keeping with Lissoni's minimalist design philosophy, function and minimalism combine here to powerful effect: less can be more.
