Why We Love It

Playful, poetic and pared back, Space Copenhagen’s design team have reimagined the traditional lantern with the calming and characterful Unbound Table Lamp. With the teardrop-shaped marble base acting as an anchor, the white linen or natural canvas shade can be effortlessly rotated around it, as though it were a sail, gently billowing. Its dark antique brass ‘mast’ supports an array of dimmable LED lights within the shade that create a soft, diffuse and evenly distributed light. The smallest of the three Unbound Lamps, it can be used as both a standalone table lamp and a floor lamp. By placing it together with the Large and Medium Unbound Floor Lamps, it helps create a sculptural cluster. Changing the angles of the ‘sails' to each other makes a calming, floating and dynamic sculpture, even when switched off. This balance of character and sophistication make the Unbound Floor Lamps destined to grace both the private home and grand projects alike.

  • The Unbound Collection fulfils Space Copenhagen’s ambition to create a practical but poetic lantern with a distinctive sculptural character.
  • The pared-back take on a traditional Japanese paper lantern balances the ethereal and the functional, while challenging the conventions of the typology in its playful asymmetry.
  • The Unbound Lamp was conceived to cast a spacious atmospheric light and create a gentle ‘Zen-like’ ambience.
  • Available in three sizes, Unbound can be positioned in unison or at angles to one another, creating an animated sculpture even when switched off.
  • Changing angles and positions of the lamps in relation to one another therefore subtly alters the impact of the ensemble and the mood of the space from something that evokes falling leaves to clouds drifting across the sky – actions we humans are naturally drawn towards.
  • The smallest of the three brings light to spaces as small as a console or bedside table, making it a functional and flexible piece.
  • The teardrop-shaped gray marble base of the lantern-inspired series acts as an anchor, embodying stillness and weight.
  • Dimmable LEDs arrayed around the antique brass mast give the lamp it's ethereal glow.
  • A rotating white linen or natural canvas shade with the same shape appears weightless, vibrant and flighty in contrast – aligning perfectly over the base only once in every 360º rotation and embodying asymmetry for the other 359º.
  • The black cord features a dimmer switch, so the intensity of light can be adjusted to match the mood.
