A floor lamp isn’t just something to fill an empty corner it ought to be the focal point of the room, providing comfortable lighting too.
A classic is the Tripod Lamp, industrial in style and functional in use. Traditionally, a tripod lamp features a height-adjustable frame and you’ll find many such examples. There are also lamps where the design is more contemporary but with hints of the original in evidence. Here are a few examples of what we’re talking about…
