Lighting Puts light over the sofa without drilling the ceiling A curved steel arm on a marble base that reaches out about a metre. It is the answer to a reading corner with no ceiling point above it. Reaches 1 m out Stands behind the sofa and drops light exactly where you read. Marble counterweight 9 kg of stone at the base. It does not tip, however far the arm extends. Adjustable arm Two joints let you set the reach and the height rather than take what you are given. Directional shade The dome points straight down, so light lands on the page and not in your eyes. 01 — The problem Ceiling points are where they are Most living rooms have one light in the middle and nothing over the seating. An arc lamp moves the light without touching the wiring. 02 — The base Why it has to be heavy An arm reaching a metre out is a lever. Anything under about 8 kg at the foot will tip the first time someone catches it. 03 — The bulb Directional, not ambient This is a task light. A warm 2700K bulb aimed down gives you a pool to read in and leaves the rest of the room soft.
