So how can we cultivate the benefits of the our natural environment in the most intimate of places – our homes? This was the question that helped to bring this issue of Habitus to life.

Habitus Loves… Table Lamps

This week we get studying with 8 of our favourite table and desk lamps, from the playful, to the elegant, to the downright cool! Enjoy.

Bague Piccola
		Designed by: Patricia Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto for Foscarini Why we love it: Ok, well… one or more of us might be an Apple fan, and this reminds us a lot of the Mac Pro casing. But as an object, it’s sleek, refined and modern. Love¹⁰ Where you can get it: Space Furniture
Anglepoise Fifty
		Designed by: Anthony Dickens Why we love it: What isn’t to love? This table lamp looks like a chocolate mould and deconstructs the classic desk light with it’s ‘two-face’ form. Where you can get it: Corporate Culture
Orchid
		Designed by: Marc Pascal Why we love it: Although made with polycarbonate, the forms of Pascal’s Orchid light feel very organic. The light is far from a static table lamp – tactile and a real centrepiece. Where you can get it: M2 Products – various stockists
Twiggy Tavolo
		Designed by: Marc Sadler Why we love it: This is simple, elegant and looks like a bluebell heavy with morning dew (poetic huh?). We can’t really think of anywhere this wouldn’t work. Where you can get it: Space Furniture
Alchemy
		Designed by: Arik Levy for Tronconi Why we love it: What can we say? This has to be the perfect gift for any studious chemist. This is such a fun, playful, yet graceful design with satin-nickel-finished metal the light has a glass diffuser with tiny glass spheres. Where you can get it: Core Furniture
Air lamp
		Designed by: Ray Power for LZF Why we love it: It’s hard to believe this light is made from one single sheet of Polywood®, but it is. Simple in form, minimal materials, curvy – what more coud you want? Oh, yeah, it comes in 8 different colours. Where you can get it: KEZU
Table Jewellery
		Designed by: Volker Haug Why we love it: We love Volker’s mischievous, charismatic lights. This table lamp has a form made of a single bent length of bronzed brass for an industrial feel. It’s a bit like a black piece of neon tubing – so cool. Where you can get it: Volker Haug
Studioilse w084t
		Designed by: Ilse Crawford Why we love it: For those who want something simple, functional, yet stylish – this is the lamp for you. It’s got a playful aesthetic with the honesty and warmth of wood. Where you can get it: Corporate Culture
