Sensitive environments like churches and museums require finely-tuned lighting solutions. With its flexibility and dimmable light source, ateljé Lyktan’s new floorlamp Noble is specially adapted for sensitive settings. Noble is comprised of two parts: a foot with a socket without electrical leads, and a post with lamps and electrical equipment. “In churches, every little hole and fixing needs to be approved by an architect and local administrative board,” explains Noble’s designer Hans Wihlborg.

Noble has an aluminium profile and a foot in steel. It is equipped with four lamps, framed by brass.
