Knit Floor & Table

Overview

Model 7480 is the Knit floor lamp with a stand, 178 cm high, with a fabric shade of Ø 45 cm. Light leaves through the knitted fabric and downwards through a translucent diffuser; the lamp gives a diffuse 360-degree light and a descending light.

Construction

The shade is fabric (PES FR) with a diffuser ring and support in ABS. The tube is steel and the base is zinc alloy. The finish is 24 Beige M1 (NCS S 2005-Y50R); the two-tonal stitching gives the fabric different levels of density.

A knitted shade

Designed by Meike Harde, the Knit floor lamp has a single knitted lycra sleeve stretched over its diffuser. The ribs of the sleeve are made with technical knitting, a technique found mostly in sportswear in which machines knit a three-dimensional volume in one piece. Fabric, diffuser and ring casing make a seamless transition.

Light through the fabric

Light seeps outwards through the fabric of the Knit floor lamp and downwards through a translucent diffuser, which softens the luminosity. The surface is ribbed and textured, and the two-tonal stitching with its different levels of density gives the shade a range of nuanced hues.

On a slender base

The floor lamp combines a generous volume with a slender base. Model 7480 stands 178 cm high with a Ø 45 cm shade, and is fed by a plug-in connection.
