Designer Michael Anastassiades masterfully blends industrial simplicity with profound symbolism, a concept beautifully epitomized by the IC T1 Low Table Lamp from FLOS. Emitting diffused light through a mouth-blown opaline sphere delicately supported by a brass-plated steel frame embodies a harmonious balance of form and function. Anastassiades draws inspiration from the concept of poise, evident in the lamp's design that evokes the skilled balance of a juggler's act, alongside deeper symbolism represented by the lamp's name, "IC," referencing the identity code for immigrants entering the UK, making a profound and commanding statement through design.

FLOS was first established in 1962 in Merano, Italy, to produce high quality modern lighting. This Italian lighting company continues to do so to this day by collaborating with talented international designers and researching the latest lighting technologies and materials. Resulting FLOS lighting fixtures are daring and provocative, yet uphold the fundamental principles of good design.
