Louis Poulsen - Njp table lamp

This lamp was designed by Japanese design studio Nendo and designer Oki Sato. NJP Tavolo is a new interpretation of the classic architect’s lamp. Its simple and direct appearance contains the functional components of the lamp and makes its expression immediately understandable. The applications of the lamp have been considered in every detail. The two joints on the arm offer great flexibility, making it easy to set the position of the lamp. In addition to this, the joint springs are exposed and thus contribute to the decorative expression of the lamp. Similarly, the rear opening of the lampshade towards the arm ensures continuous adjustment of the head and ventilation of the LED units.
