Joe Colombo's initial project for Oluce was a collaboration with his brother Gianni. Following this, the two brothers clearly divided their areas of expertise: Joe departed from art, where he had shown intriguing promise with "Nucleari," while Gianni abandoned design to become one of the leading proponents of kinetic, programmed movement. The 281 model, created in 1962, was promptly nicknamed "Acrilica" due to its striking visibility and innovative use of a significant curve made from acrylic. Methacrylate, used in lighting for about a decade, typically in thin sheets that are cut or thermoformed, found a unique application here: its thickness and curvature enabled the light from a fluorescent lamp contained within the painted steel base to pass through the transparent body, ultimately illuminating the head in an extraordinary manner. This "magical movement" made "281" more of a kinetic art piece than a lamp. In 1964, "Acrilica" won the gold medal at the XIII Triennial in Milan.
