Rising majestically from the floor, the cylindrical silhouette of the Hashira Floor Lamp iteration is combined with elements of western textile lamp shades to lend the design a familiar feel. The translucent fabric shade not only acts as a diffuser, projecting the light in multiple directions while creating a cosy, glare-free ambience, it also adds palpable appeal that enhances the softness of an interior – acoustically as well as tactilely.

The Hashira Collection is a modern, Nordic take on the traditional Japanese rice paper lantern. Taking its name from the Japanese word for column or pillar, the textile lamps fill a space with cosy, ambient light and, true to the nature of the lantern that inspired the collection’s creation, the slender structure is visible through the shade, lending the glowing column a graphic expression. The lamp is offered in table, floor and pendant iterations, and the subdued silhouette and versatile nature of its design make it ideal in a private home —placed on the floor, atop a console or suspended from the ceiling — as well as in a professional setting, alone or in clusters.
