About the Item
Sometimes, design escapes classification. This 1988 “Coral” floor lamp by Bohuslav Horák for Anthologie Quartett sits confidently in that space—somewhere between sculpture and object.
Design
This lamp in metal features a slender, organically curved stem that extends upward from an irregular, coral-like base. At the top, a single, shield-shaped form mimics the delicate structure of sea fan corals. The surface is partially perforated, cut in fluid, cellular patterns that create an ever-changing play of light and shadow when illuminated. Light escapes through these scattered openings, casting textured shadows across walls and floors. It glows softly from within, giving off an atmospheric light that feels almost underwater. A small switch is embedded along the cord, which trails from the foot like a root. Despite its visual delicacy, the lamp stands with a confident and quiet balance, its playful outline belying a well-thought-out construction.Horák’s “Coral” is both functional and abstract. It doesn’t try to blend in—it animates the space it occupies.Overall, this lamp remains a rare example of late-80s radical design. Thoughtful in execution, playful in form, and precise in effect.
