Flos Mayday Table Lamp is a portable table lamp from Flos's Mayday range, designed by Konstantin Grcic. The lamp's clean, conical silhouette and functional handle reference an industrial utility light while remaining deliberately minimal for modern interiors. It is intended for versatile indoor use as a table, floor or suspended pendant-style light.The form centres on a large conical diffuser in translucent white, paired with a sculptural black handle that integrates a hook and cable management. The Mayday is offered in two appearance options: Black and Orange, allowing selection to suit a scheme or to provide a contrasting accent.The diffuser is injection-moulded opal polypropylene. The handle is also injection-moulded polypropylene with a 10% talc fill, combining robustness with a tactile, matte finish. A flat base allows the lamp to stand upright, while the ergonomic handle makes it easy to carry and reposition.The wide conical shade provides a broad, even distribution of soft light, making the Mayday effective as ambient or utility lighting depending on placement. A large open hook lets the lamp be hung from furniture, rails or ceiling fixings; when placed on a surface the diffuser offers comfortable, glare-controlled illumination.The handle houses a push-button switch for simple on/off control and doubles as a cord winder to keep excess cable neat. The product is IP20 rated for indoor use and comes with a 1 Year manufacturer warranty. Please refer to technical details for lamp and driver information when specifying.At Lighting Design Online we recommend the Mayday where a considered, portable light is required — its honest materials and multifunctional handle solve common site needs with clarity. We provide project-friendly support for specifying finishes, mounting options and compatibility so the finished scheme feels right, not just lit.
