The Luxo L-1 Architect/Task Lamp: An Icon of Scandinavian Design
The lamp that started it all. This is the original Luxo L-1, a triumph of Norwegian engineering and a foundational piece of mid-century modern design. Created by Jac Jacobsen, its revolutionary spring-balanced arm provides incredibly fluid movement and perfect balance, allowing you to position the light exactly where you need it with effortless grace.
This c.1970s example features the original vintage chocolate brown finish, beautifully contrasted by chrome springs and articulated joints. Beyond its impeccable function as a task lamp, the L-1 holds a unique place in popular culture as the famous inspiration for the beloved animated character from Pixar Animation Studios.
Presented in very good vintage condition, this lamp remains as practical and stylish today as it was decades ago. It has been professionally tested and tagged, making it ready for reliable use in any modern Australian office or home.
