The Anglepoise contemporary lamp is the result of 70 years of design and development. Originally created in Great Britain by the car designer, George Carwardine, they are a triumph of aesthetics and practicality. The contemporary lamp retains the simplicity of Carwardine’s original design, whilst embracing the benefits of technological developments, such as new materials and environmental advances, such as energy-saving bulbs.

At Anglepoise.com, we are proud to unveil our collection of contemporary lamps. Carwardine’s original design was based around a series of springs that offered unbeatable balance and the ability to reposition the light with unparalleled precision. The design of the contemporary lamp still retains the original design that has made the Anglepoise a much-imitated design classic.

These task lamps were originally designed with Carwardine’s workforce in mind. He was looking for a way to illuminate the components that his employees were using in creating suspension systems for cars. Once he had succeeded in his design, he soon realised that the Anglepoise’s unique system would offer equal benefits to office workers and in the home.

In addition to their practical benefits, contemporary lamps offer you the chance to make a statement about your living environment. Minimalist and stylish, these table lamps are instantly recognisable. Available in a variety of materials, colours and finishes, they complement any living space, adding an understated chic to your surroundings.
