Winkel w127b2 Table Lamp
The w127 by Wästberg challenges the perception of a material that is known to people just as ‘plastic’, going further than what’s the norm not only in terms of function and the look, but about the feel and tactility of the material as well. The aim of designer Dirk Winkel was to celebrate the actual material as it is, straightforward, solid and honest, with a concept of hiding nothing, but showing its innermost values to the outside. No second skin, no paint coat, the true, bold material in its pure form.
w127 Winkel’s entire concept is built on providing state-of-the-art light, and in this, it truly excels. Built around a COB LED, its well thought through, precisely engineered lighting solution comprises several individual system components. Each of these plays its own vital role in delivering a generous yet incredibly even spread of high-quality, dimmable light over a large surface. Thanks to the biopolyamide material’s heat insulating qualities, paired with a sophisticated heat management system, powerful light can be combined with safe handling and a long lifespan. Last but not least, a built-in timer switches the light off after nine hours, for even greater energy efficiency.
