Robin Lamp
The Robin floor and table lamps were designed to create a family of lights. Robin gets its name from a bird like aesthetic and the way in which the lights can be maneuvered.
The two sizes of the floor and table lamp use inversed structure elements to achieve a proportional relationship with each other, imitating the appearance of a parent and child.
Bird legs are mimicked through the stem like structure and slim base. The shade options in white, black and yellow aim to reflect a robin’s colouring.
There are two pivot points, one on the stem and the second on the shade. This allows the user to adjust the angle and position of the light. The lights are made from a square tubular aluminium frame, powder coated spun aluminium shade and metal base.
