The IC S1 in Matte Black balances simplicity and elegance, whilst also juggling form and function. The simple spheres of light rest on a slim metal pole that stands by its origins, proudly illuminating the surface of the lamp’s body.

Please note that if you choose a clear/transparent light source, be aware that some shadows are expected in the opal glass of the display. If you want to avoid the shadows, you must purchase a matt bulb, as this will not cause shadows in the screen.
IC S1 is part of the forward-thinking collection of table lamps, floor lamps, wall lamps and pendants that cling to their solid design DNA. The simple and light design means that the lamp suits a large range of different interiors.
Michael Anastassiades explains the inspiration for the collection as follows:

“I remember watching a short film about a juggler, Tony Duncan, rolling a set of spheres in the palm of his hands and up on his arms. Hypnotised by his magical skills of making the spheres appear completely still, I wanted to capture the moment. Then I came across the old photographs of Paul Cinqeuvalli, capturing a moment in the art of contact juggling. That was my starting points. The acronym IC refers to the codes used by the British police to define the perceived ethnicity of the people they stop in the street when reporting back to the station. IC1 means white or northern European. IC2 means Mediterranean or Spanish-speaking. IC3 means African or Afro-Caribbean, etc. This story helps define the different designs.”
