FLOOR LAMPS
Floor lamps offer a great way to light larger rooms, especially when you don’t have built-in ceiling electrical, and they’re more flexible than ceiling lamps since they can be easily moved wherever they’re needed most. For high illumination we recommend fitting floor lamps with 12.5W AmbientLED bulbs (that’s equivalent to a traditional 60W incandescent) or even a 17W AmbientLED bulbs (equivalent to 75W incandescents) for maximum brightness.
Meridian Floor Lamp by Lights Up! – $358
The Lights Up! Meridian Floor Lamp is an elegant design that stands straight up and illuminates any room with an omnidirectional pillar of light. Designed by Rachel Simon, the lamp is customizable with 100% recycled PED fabrics, which means you can dress it up in colors and patterns if the standard white linen model is too stark for your style. The Meridian Floor lamp is a great match for any A-shape LED bulb – for high illumination we recommend a Philips 17W AmbientLED light bulb.
Light Blaster Torchiere by Possini – $249
The 72-inch-high Possini Light Blaster Torchiere is a great option for lighting large spaces that require a lot of lumens. The chrome and brushed steel floor lamp features four sockets that accept standard A-shaped bulbs – deck it out with 4 17W Philips AmbientLED bulbs for maximum brightness, and use the integrated high-low switch to fine tune light output for any situation.
Umbrella Light by Pablo – $120
Forget what you’ve heard about opening an umbrella indoors – the Pablo Umbrella Light is clearly a bright idea. This fun surrealist lamp is fully adjustable and when paired with a 60 watt equivalent LED bulb (like the Philips A19 AmbientLED) it produces a warm swath of light – even when it’s dark and drizzly outside.
Mooi Paper Floor Lamp – $3357
A modern twist on a classic form, the Mooi’s Paper Floor Lamp updates traditional Victorian decor with its paper construction and larger-than-life size. Designers Studio Job combined a wooden base with a beautiful layered paper finish. Pair this clever paper lamp with an a-shaped 60 watt incandescent equivalent AmbientLED bulb to provide both ambient and direct illumination.
fantastic selection – love the use of LED bulbs and the book reset lamp: eco-friendly and culturally enriching
Great collection! Love the simplicity of the wood lamp! Also in love with the idea behind the andropause lamp.. bringing new life into old kitchenware
that soda pull tab light is so inspiring! i want to make my own!!
I love the wall lights. Great if you don’t have a ton of space but need more focused light.
I’m definitely partial to the soda can lamp! But, really, they’re all beautiful.
Huge Greypants fan, but it may have to do with the fact that they studied architecture. I’m biased.
very cool ideas. I wish my place had room for the coffee stirrer or the soda tab lamps.
Love the Cola 10! So airy and futuristic.
I love the soda tab lamp – it’s inspiring to see such an ubiquitous throw-away material take on a glimmering new form.
Great ideas!
Graypants’ cardboard scrap lamp is just about the coolest thing I’ve ever seen. I need.
I love the Andropause lamp – who knew an old metal pot could be so gorgeous?
My fave is the book rest lamp!
the book lamp is so cute. and simple yet versatile!
