Inspiration: Our Favorite Floor Lamps
Here at Switch, we don’t have a ton of floor space available to show any large amount of floor lamps in our showroom. It makes us sad that we are unable to show all of the lamps we love so much! Since we are unable to do so, we’re going to share with you (some of) our favorite floor lamps!
Tolomeo Mega by Artemide


The Tolomeo Mega is a definite classic. It can work well in nearly any design style, and all of the bending and swiveling abilities it has make it a really functional fixture!
Nobi by Fontana Arte


Next up is the Nobi. Nobi boasts of a slim, minimal design with a maneuverable, glass diffuser. We’re crazy about its sleek design!
Curl My Light by Studio Italia Design


Curl My Light is another fantastic floor fixture on our list. Featuring a spiral of overlapping metal layers, this fixture offers a great play on light. It’s also available in two different floor lamp versions!
Funiculi by Marset


The Funiculi floor lamp is, like the Tolomeo, a classic design. It also offers versatility because you can adjust the height of the fixture, and the diffuser can rotate a full 360 degrees!
Flexiled Leather by Contardi


The Flexiled Leather floor lamp made it onto our list for multiple reasons. One of our favorite things about this lamp is that it features a material that is not a common material in lighting: leather! Even without the leather, this lamp is still wonderful. The neck is flexible, so you have maximum maneuverability. It’s also LED!
Featuring: The Piano Light
If you’ve been in our showroom, you’ve probably played the Piano light!
Featuring Piano Light by QisDesign!
The piano light is available as a floor or table lamp version. It’s especially unique because of the LED “keys” which can be individually pushed to turn them on or off. This can be particularly useful when you’re trying to create a custom level of ambient light… you can turn on and leave off as many keys as you choose!

Overall, the Piano is a fun and beautiful piece that would be a wonderful addition to any home or business!

Featuring: Trapeze Table Lamp
Today we are featuring a product that just arrived in our showroom this week! The Trapeze Lamp by Light and Contrast!
This lamp comes in two versions: one joint or two. We particularly like the two jointed version, as it offers such a wide range of flexibility! Also, Trapeze is an LED, so it will most likely never need a bulb change!
Featured: LIM Floor Lamp
Today’s featured product is the LIM Floor Lamp by Pablo! The LIM showcases a minimal design with a high output LED light source.

One of the really cool features in the design of LIM is the incorporation of high powered magnets which are used to adjust the height of the fixture!
“LIM is a revolutionary, ultra-slim LED task light that is as fun to use as it is functional.” -Pablo
Our Top 5 Desk Lamps for Your Office
Today we’re here to share with you our top 5 picks for the best desk lamps for your office! The fixtures we chose for this (exclusive) list were chosen because they are all the most functional and classic fixtures that would fit into any space nicely. These aren’t really in any particular order (we could never settle on an absolute favorite)!
The first fixture on our list is the Tolomeo Table by Artemide. We love this fixture for its classic design and maximum flexibility. Tolomeo Table features an arm with a joint in the middle, and the ability to rotate 360 degrees. The head also rotates 360 degrees, so we aren’t kidding when we say this fixture is flexible! Tolomeo also has the option to come as an LED with a setting in which you can adjust the color temperature from cool to warm. That’s pretty amazing. To top it all off, it’s available in multiple colors and sizes, so it can easily be incorporated into any design style!
Artemide really knows their stuff. Our second fixture is their Tizio Lamp.
Tizio is also well know for its timeless design (it was first designed by Richard Sapper is 1972!) and functionality. The lamp features two arms with counter weights you can adjust to fit your lighting needs. It uses a halogen light source, and is available in a classic or mini version.
Next up is Marset’s Polo Lamp. Designed by Joan Gaspar in 2012, we enjoy the clean minimalism of this lamp! It’s LED and provides a wonderful, direct light for a workspace. Polo is available in white or black matte.
If you visit our blog regularly, then you already know of our love for the Pablo Pixo Lamp! This little lamp has great versatility with an arm that both tilts 180 degrees and rotates a full 360 degrees! The head can also do a full rotation. Pixo is an LED that has two brightness settings, and it even showcases a USB charging port right on the fixture!
Five: Anglepoise Original 1227

Our final product for this list is the Original 1227 from Anglepoise. If the Tizio is an old, yet classic design, then the Original 1227 is an ancient classic design! This collection was originally designed by George Carwadine in 1934! How is that for standing the test of time? The Original 1227 uses spring technology to accomplish ultimate flexibility and balance, plus it comes in a wide array of colors!

Featured Fixture: Pixo Lamp by Pablo
Hello, Friends!
Today we are featuring one of our new favorite table lamps! Pixo by Pablo!
Chances are that if you’ve been in our showroom in the past week or so, we’ve presented this fixture to you. We just love it so much. We can’t help but show it off!

Pixo features a wide range of motions. The arm can be angled any way you please, including flat on the table! The head also rotates a full 360 degrees to accommodate whatever you may need lit up. This lamp also features LED technology and has three different brightness settings. Pixo also boasts of soft touch technology, so the fixture has a wonderful texture when touched.

To top it all off, Pixo also has a USB port on the base, so you can charge most any device on your desk or table!

Stop into Switch today to check out Pixo in person! They make great gifts for any recent graduates starting a new career! (and at only $199, who could resist?)

The Scraplight from Greypants is available in a multitude of shapes, sizes, and configurations. Each lamp is constructed from laser cut, recycled cardboard!
Hatha Table Lamp (The Yoga Master)
Introducing the Hatha table lamp by QisDesign!
“An exquisite combination of rubber and metal, The Hatha Light is an LED table lamp that bends as human body. With a flexible spine embedded in the rubber lamp body, the lamp allows users to adjust The Hatha Light freely at different angle and height to meet various needs.
Adopted with high power LEDs and lens design, the Hatha Light delivers sufficient brightness for reading use, and reach high light efficiency.” -QisDesign
