Our lighting, from Anglepoise

The British brand Anglepoise needs no introduction! Its timeless, industrial 1930s style has made the original model a true design icon around the world.

It was in his garage workshop that automotive engineer George Carwardine first sketched out the design for the Anglepoise work lamp in the early 1930s. Quickly adopted in homes, it became an iconic object, recognized for its expressive silhouette and its engineering—as precise as it is elegant. Since its inception, the founding Terry family has safeguarded the brand’s legacy with dedication and passion. Now led by the fifth generation, with Simon Terry at the helm, Anglepoise stands the test of time just as its lamps are passed down, from hand to hand, generation after generation.

A natural companion to creativity, the Anglepoise lamp stands out for its unmatched ability to direct light exactly where it’s needed.

Perfectly suited for machining work in workshops, the Anglepoise lamp was originally adopted by industry—and in particular the automotive sector—for its practicality. This design icon made its debut in France thanks to the luxury leather goods house Emile Hermès, which incorporated it into its workshops. Soon, artisans began customizing the lamp by covering it in leather, just as they had done with their tools to protect them. In the 1950s, the director at the time fell in love with this lamp and began offering it to her clients. That’s when the little industrial lamp entered the world of luxury!

Since then, the success of the famous architect’s lamp has never waned. The collection has expanded over time, featuring not only a variety of colors and finishes but also different models, such as floor lamps, wall sconces, and pendant lights...

While the Original 1227™ model has retained its original design since its creation, the modern Type 75™ and Type 80™ lines, designed by Sir Kenneth Grange, reinterpret the iconic form by focusing on the essentials: balance, function, and simplicity.

Certified as a B Corp in 2024 and offering a lifetime warranty on its products, Anglepoise continues its journey from its headquarters in Hampshire (United Kingdom), with the ambition to illuminate the world with precision, honoring its heritage while keeping its sights set on the future.
