Desk Lamp

A task light in the traditional sense, shaped around the one job a desk lamp has: putting light on the paper and keeping it out of your eyes. The form follows the familiar stem-and-hood arrangement, a broad foot anchoring an upright that carries a shade angled down over the work surface, so the source stays hooded and the pool of light lands where you are working. Proportions are kept honest rather than decorative. Nothing about it fights for attention next to a keyboard, a sketchpad or a soldering mat, and the silhouette is quiet enough to live in a study, a workshop corner or a bedside table without announcing itself. A sensible first lighting print, and a piece that suits anyone furnishing a desk from the printer rather than the shop.
