Recycled from an old bicycle rim, an industrial design floor lamp is created with the help of LED strips and a self-made stand made from heating pipes.
The LEDs emit warm white light and can be dimmed in stages depending on the time of day or use, allowing the floor lamp to function as full lighting, subtle atmospheric light or as shadowy night or lounge lighting. The luminaire is mounted on a filigree frame made of 20 mm thick stainless steel heating tube with corresponding moulded parts to form the axle holder and the base. The floor lamp creates a harmonious overall impression that is true to the material and industrial in appearance.
