A table lamp inspired by the modest, anonymous beauty of the traditional glass bulb. By integrating the bulb into the form of the fixture yet intentionally exposing only its “upper half,” the design pursues a sculptural presence within simplicity.
We believe that the ideal lighting for residential spaces takes the form of ambient “ground light” discreetly scattered in places needed. In our past residential projects, we have developed bracket lights with lighting designers based on this very idea. This product reconstructs that concept in a more approachable way. Equipped with a LED bulb, this product offers fine dimming control. Instead of adopting a rechargeable system, we chose a corded design, allowing the bulb to be replaced over time—ensuring a lamp that can be used and cherished for years.
