Inside the shade the finish is white, and holes on top are there for an optimal light effect. The lamp is screwed on the wall and the parts slide together. Power is supplied by a white textile cord (2 m) with a switch.

Story
Simplicity as the goal
Rise is a wall lamp by Marianne Andersen that has belonged to the Normann Copenhagen lamp collection since 2016. Simplicity was a specific goal throughout the design process: she wanted an immediate and intuitive design in which only the most necessary parts are prominent, and she knew she was close when the lamp consisted of only two elements and two materials.
Ash against steel
The wooden base in ash is an organic, warm material placed close to the wall, chosen for a soft transition between the lamp and the room. Against it stands the raw, industrial look of the shade. In February 2023 Normann Copenhagen launched the lamp in this brushed stainless steel variant.
