Flamingo Floor Lamp

Overview

Flamingo is a floor lamp by Bernhard Osann for Nemo Lighting. Its variable weight distribution and central centre of gravity let the structure balance itself, which gives stability and freedom of movement without friction. The adjustable light source provides functional or decorative illumination.

Construction

The materials are aluminium, brass and stone. The source is an LED UGR linear unit of 18 W and 1800 lm, offered at 2700 K and at 3000 K, dimmable on board, for 220/240 V, with CRI 90, IP class 20 and a 1.6 m cable.

Specifications

• Overall size: 140 x 140 x 10 cm (W x H x D)
• Source: LED UGR linear, 18 W, 1800 lm, 2700 K or 3000 K
• Finish codes: Black / Stone, Red / Stone and Chrome / Stone

Balance without friction

Manual interaction and flexibility are the cornerstones of Flamingo. Because the weight distribution varies and the centre of gravity is central, the structure balances itself independently, and the light source can be adjusted to suit functional or decorative lighting.

Osann and moving objects

Bernhard Osann has run his design studio in Hamburg since 2014. His work experiments with physical laws and geometrical shapes, and the results are minimalistic dynamic constructions that move and interact with space.
