For this striking fifth edition of the collaboration between Paul Smith and Anglepoise the two brands look to black for inspiration. A slight flair of trademark Smith colour lifts the lamp central arm, which is otherwise clad in a simple shade of noir, making it a hyper-stylish and highly dynamic addition to any home or workspace. Forms part of the Paul Smith range of lights for Anglepoise.
Originally a draughtsman in an architect’s office and briefly an exhibition designer, Sir Kenneth Grange's career took off when Kodak asked him to design their Instamatic camera. Many of his designs have become familiar items, such as his food mixers for Kenwood, razors for Wilkinson Sword, pens for Parker and British Rail’s InterCity 125.
Sir Kenneth Grange became design director at the iconic British designer lighting brand Anglepoise in 2003. His first Anglepoise lamp was the Type 3™ desk lamp, which was launched in 2003. Grange has since gone on to design the Anglepoise Type 75 and Type 1228 collections.
