The Giant AnglePoise!
The constant concern of interior designers and decorators on the lighting system in homes is thus directed towards both aesthetics and practicability. No matter how strange the face, position and location of some modern lamps may be in a room, there is always a way to ensure perfect lighting, to the benefit of your sight and the beauty and modernity of your home. Where to Buy The Giant Anglepoise?
When the Anglepoise desk lamp first appeared back in the 1930’s, an icon was born. It was special in both shape and functionality so it soon conquered the hearts of office workers and workaholics who quickly brought it into their studies at home. Ever since, the spring controlled cantilever tilt mechanism has accompanied many new models of lamps, each with improved characteristics and slightly different styles. We must not forget to mention the geniuses from Pixar who introduced the animation with the jumping light and revolutionized the desk-lamp industry (though some say the original step frame animation is the invention of Peter Ryde who had this brilliant idea some decades before Pixar). The latest creation inspired by the original Anglepoise lamp is a three times life-size Anglepoise, one of the coolest lamps you have ever seen. Besides being eye-catching and very fashionable, it is hand-made and improved with modern-day additional casters so you can move it around wherever you need to; it also has a safety system to freeze it right as you want it. Otherwise, heavy as it is, it couldn’t stay locked in position and might become a nuisance to the owner. The arm, joints, fork and base are made from aluminium, a widely-spread and highly-resistant metal used in interior decoration nowadays. The lamp will probably not be the only aluminium piece in your room. Available in black (this version is a limited edition), grey and cream, this crazy-looking lamp will compliment your room even if you have gathered all the colours of the rainbow in there, and will look very trendy. It comes with a 100 watt halogen reflector bulb and requires a 240 volt adaptor. It is not a toy so even if you start feeling like Alice in Wonderland next to or under it, don’t start talking to the thing, and keep children under 14 years old away from it. The new giant Anglepoise can reach a height of 2.7 m but its position is lockable to make it fit the room. The lamp holder is an Edison Screw E27, the diameter of the shade is 44.5 m and the cable is 2m long. So, how far would you go to arrange your favourite room in the house? The giant Anglepoise is, I believe, a great piece to boost the appearance of any home, and timeless too. |
