Table Lamps
Table lamps provide a super flexible way to adjust and play with your interior design, where practical lighting, cosiness and decoration come together. We have a huge selection of the best designer table lamps on the market. Before you buy a table lamp, you need to consider what needs your table lamp will fulfil. Should the lamp provide a warm light for a cosy atmosphere, a focused reading or work light at the desk, or should it function as a sculptural element in the room? Take a look at our wide range of table lamps, where you'll find table lamps for the bedside table, for atmospheric lighting in the living room as well as a practical light on your desk or work table.

But what is a table lamp really a thing?
- It is a designed object that is equipped with one or more light sources.
- It can stand without being fixed to a horizontal surface.
- It typically provides indirect lighting.
- It can be static or flexible in multiple directions.
- It can be made of different materials such as metal, fabric, plastic, concrete, glass or wood.
Which table lamp should I choose?
With great choice comes great consideration, because which table lamp should you choose? Which table lamp will fit best in your interior design? To make it easier to choose the table lamp that best suits your unique interior design, there are a few things you might want to consider.
What other lights are in the room?
Basically, table lamps provide a dim and often downward and therefore limited light. Therefore, you need to consider what other light sources are already in the room. If you have a large room with few light sources, you shouldn't expect a single table lamp to make a big difference in lighting up the entire room. Table lamps are best suited to illuminate a small corner, so if you want to avoid small 'islands' of light in a large room, make sure you also have some more powerful light sources that provide a wider spread of light in the room. Here commuter is often a good solution. However, if you have a small room, you may be able to get by with a single table lamp and a floor lamp.
What do you need the table lamp for?
The function of the table lamp can basically be divided into two categories: cosiness and atmosphere or reading and work light. Although many table lamps provide good reading light, there are also many table lamps that are clearly best suited as mood lighting. That's why it's important that you choose your new table lamp according to what you need it for. If you want to create soft and cosy lighting that is great for deep conversations and cosy moments, you can choose a table lamp like Flowerpot. If, on the other hand, you want a good reading light so you don't have to strain your eyes, take a closer look at table lamps from LIGHT-POINT, Normann Copenhagen or Foscarini.
Retro table lamp
If you want a different table lamp that doesn't reflect a minimalist, modern or colourful style, you might want a retro table lamp. A vintage-inspired table lamp usually has a history or appearance that reflects this, giving the lamp a prehistoric, classic and timeless look that is both extremely modern and gives the feeling that the lamp is one of a kind. It has become more fashionable to buy items that have a retro look to add a unique element with a certain aesthetic to your interior design.

Choose a brass, black or white table lamp for your home
It can be difficult to choose exactly which colour best suits your decor. For example, you may want a colour that goes well with the rest of the colour scheme in your home, or you may want an element that can break with the existing decor by adding a little character, warmth and personality to your home decor with a brass table lamp. If you have a minimalist or modern interior design style, a white or black table lamp can be an obvious choice as these colours exude the clean lines, simplicity and elegance that also characterise these cool shades. Brass, on the other hand, exudes warmth and cosiness, and a table lamp made of this material acts as a natural cosy spreader regardless of the room it is placed in.

Table lamp with dimmer
Do you need both a highly task-friendly light as well as a cosy ambient light, but you want to combine them in one lamp? Then a table lamp with dimmer is the perfect choice. With a dimmer, you can adjust the light intensity to suit your needs and mood, so whether you need relaxed light in the bedroom or focused light in the office, a lamp with a dimmer is definitely the solution so you can get it exactly the way you want it.
There are also several types of dimmers available, with touch dimmer and 3-step dimmer being just some of the different models that can help you get the right lighting. You can also read much more and learn more about the different dimmers here!
Get a cordless table lamp
One of the biggest trends in the lighting world today is without a doubt wireless lights. This is partly because it has become increasingly popular to be able to move your lamps around without having to worry about disturbing wires and sockets - and a table lamp with battery is the ultimate solution to this problem. With a portable lamp, you can enjoy its light anywhere in your home and you don't have to commit to just one location in your interior design. Many cordless lights can also be taken outside, so you can take the soft and comfortable lighting out onto your patio or balcony late on a summer evening to add to the cosy and relaxed atmosphere. See our full range of portable lights here!
Another big trend we've noticed in the lighting world is that more and more lamps have been equipped with a very smart feature in the form of a built-in USB port. This way you can easily and elegantly charge your mobile devices that are compatible with a USB port, eliminating the need for extra cables and putting a charger at your fingertips. You can see our full range of lights with USB here!
Office desk lamp
With our wide range, you're sure to find table lamps for every room in your home. The desk is one of the most obvious locations, with architectural lights being one of the most popular functional and aesthetic lighting options for the office.

The choice between a large or small table lamp
A table lamp can set the whole mood of the room, so before you choose, consider its purpose first and foremost so you know whether you're looking for large or small table lamps. A large table lamp can be useful to place where you need broad and uniform lighting, whereas a small table lamp works better to provide targeted and direct lighting for a smaller area. At the same time, a larger table lamp naturally takes up more space in the room and therefore attracts more attention, which can be an advantage if you want the lamp to also function as a decorative interior design element and contribute to the overall atmosphere and aesthetics.
Have fun finding your new table lamp!
