Animaro, a London-based design studio will present a kinetic desk and floor lamp family called ‘Crane Lamp’ at the Clerkenwell Design Week.
Inspired by the elongation of a Crane’s neck when catching prey, the Crane Lamp is a playful moving desk and floor lamp that can be adapted depending on the user’s needs or mood. The lamps are designed to bring a sense of play and wonder to the home. The structure and bases are constructed from solid walnut and all moving parts are machined from solid brass; including a brass gear and rack which allow the movement of the lamp.
The desk lamp version was first exhibited at Salone Satellite in Milan in 2016 and received a great deal of attention due to the elegant, almost anthropomorphic way in which it moves and extends. The launch will include a desk lamp which can extend from a height of 30 cm to 1 m tall and a floor lamp which can extend from a height of 50 cm to 1.8 m.
