Tangent Table Lamp: Quick Ship

Frederik Kurzweg’s table lamp arose when the designer played around with cylinders of varied proportions. Tangent has a cleanly graphic shape with 2 steel tubes that meet at their tangential point of contact—the smaller housing the electrics while the larger functions as the lamp’s shade. The light source within is encased in an opal-glass diffuser that creates a soft light when turned on and the visual effect of yet a third cylinder when turned off.
