Idomeneo is a floor lamp (360/361) specifically conceived as a reading lamp and consists of a glossy black anodised aluminium stem supporting two directable reflectors adjustable in height and screened on the front by a variably painted aluminium disk that could be tilted or rotated through a small junction at the back. The base consists of a black-painted metal semicircle so that it could be placed against the wall. The spotlights are directable too and alternatively mounted two incandescent or halogen lightbulbs. Idomeneo is fitted with a separate double switch directly on the electric cable powering the two reflectors. In photographs of the time, it was mainly used as a headboard light with the cable that could be gathered in the vertical stem. The wall version (model 120 with incandescent bulbs and model 121 with halogen bulbs) presents a disk directly fixed onto the wall support through a stem stump.
