Tab lamp is a simple folded form, creating a visually pure shade that translates into a desk and floor lamp. The simplicity of the form contrasts with the technical characteristics of the ceramic reflector, which gives a pure and controllable light.

The first drawing of Tab included the shape of the shade, then we added the stem, base and then finally the tab; this simple sketch took more or less a few minutes. Four years of development followed.

The simple, aluminium shade allows a small amount of adjustment to the direction of the light: Tab can be used for sketching or writing but can also be angled towards a wall to provide reflected, ambient light.
