Description
A striking arrangement of 2 circles bisected by a simple rod is all there is to it with Umage cofounder and creative chief Sřren Ravn Christensen's timeless floor lamp. But Asteria is also a marvel of LED technology along with its appealingly minimal shape, featuring a white diffuser that ensures resoundingly soft illumination in the surrounding space. A brass base and stem complement the range of lamp colors and simply twisting the top part of the stem easily turns the light on and off.

Not many people would give a successful brand a name-changing reboot but that’s exactly what Søren Ravyn Christian did with Umage, which aptly translates from the Danish as making an extra effort. Formerly lighting label Vita Copenhagen, the relaunched company also branched into furniture, boldly debuting 15 pieces in a single swoop. For Søren, it’s all about problem solving: “Our design ethos is to look at a design and think how can we make this functional?... How can we make the annoying and unattractive, functional and attractive?”
The answer is range of thoughtful offerings, from the feathered Eos pendant light to the sculptural Reader chair and multipurpose Lounge Around seating. All Umage products are flat-packed in stylish boxes, to simplfy global logistics, make the products more accessible and minimize the carbon footprint. “It means putting in the extra effort with all our designs and the whole journey and process of that piece,” Soren says. “It means being clever with packaging so we are not shipping something across the oceans that is 90% air.”
