Each floor lamp is characterized by a clear design language.

Classic floor lamps – anything but old-fashioned

Classic floor lamps, that sounds a bit old-fashioned and like a good living room. Modern classic floor lamps are quite simply straight floor lamps that have a lampshade at their upper end. They are perfect for setting a light accent in a corner of a room. The currently popular 3-leg or tripod lamps also belong to these floor lamps. Tripod lamps have a tripod like a camera. Therefore the name. The tripods are crowned by a spot or a lampshade.

With such a floor lamp, a light accent is set on certain objects in the room.

Ceiling washlights – not brand new anymore, but still up to date

Ceiling washlights are as simple and straight as a classic floor lamp. And that for over 30 years. They are still popular. Quite simply because they are practical, match home furnishings with modern chests of drawers and can create a pleasant lighting atmosphere. Light ceilings reflect the light, which then gently illuminates part of the room indirectly.

This floor lamp fits wonderfully in the living room.

Arc lamps – design classics from the 1960s

Arc lamps are timeless. The lamps, designed by the Castiglioni brothers in Italy in 1962, have been used since the mid-1970s for atmospheric lighting in a delimited area. Thanks to the wide curved stand, you can push an arc lamp close to an armchair. Equipped with an energy-saving LED, they provide perfect light for relaxed reading.

You can easily place a floor lamp anywhere you need additional lighting. Whether classic floor lamp, arc lamp or uplight. Which of these three lamp types you choose is entirely up to your personal taste.
