About the Item
This pair of post-modern floor lamps from Philips' "Manhattan" series are iconic lighting fixtures, epitomizing the adventurous spirit of mid-1980s design. Their slim, vertical stature is indicative of a minimalist influence, while the distinct blue rings with black centers infuse a bold visual character typical of the era's aesthetic.
Crafted with an eye toward futurism, these lamps offer more than mere illumination; they are sculptural pieces that alter the ambiance of a room with their presence. The design incorporates a clever play of colors and forms—the cool blue of the diffuser rings creates a calming halo effect, while the central black piece grounds the design and directs the light.
When lit, these lamps cast an ambient glow that can transform any space into a serene environment. The light scattering through the blue ring is both soft and enveloping, providing a comfortable atmosphere in a living room, study, or any space in need of subtle lighting and contemporary flair.
Standing on sturdy bases, the lamps' slender poles lead up to the main feature, the disk-like diffuser, which adds a modern touch to any interior design scheme. They serve as reminders of the era's enthusiasm for design that combined sleek lines with novel uses of color and material to create pieces that were as much about art as functionality.
