If there's one thing that brings me a sense of nostalgia and comfort, it's cozy evening lighting. Little lights that make a statement, while also creating an intimate and memorable atmosphere. What better way to embrace al fresco dining, or dive deep into one of your favorite books after all?
Taking lighting to the next level, British lighting brand and designer Tom Dixon has launched its POSE portable lamps, offering a sleek, modern design that instantly uplifts a space.
The highlight for me, however, is the POSE portable in the beautiful chrome finish. Taking us back to the chrome decor trend that has been prevalent in interiors this year, this piece is certainly a standout within the home. Here's how you can style it within your space, according to designers, and why I think it's totally worth the purchase.
Size: Width: 17.5 x Height: 25.0 x Length: 17.5
Color options: Silver, putty, kelp, Indigo, gold
Finish: Polished
Material: ABS Plastic
Battery Life By Setting: 6-9 Hours
This portable lamp is easy to use and best of all, you can place it where it suits your home best.
The POSE portable light brings a blend of allure and contemporary styling. Made from ABS plastic — a strong and durable material — the lamp features a plated finishing process that also adds irresistible shine. Best of all? It's dimmable with a simple touch and can last between 6 and 9 hours, so that you can enjoy and indulge in dim lighting throughout the evening. However, that's not all; the POSE portable is rechargeable and can stay connected while in charge for up to 5 hours.
So, how would a designer style this in their space? Well, for me, personally, it makes the perfect dining room lighting idea and can certainly spruce up any corner in the home.
"I love how striking the Pose lamp is, like a piece of jewelry for the home," says interior designer Sarah Partington, "but beyond its sculptural appeal, it’s also brilliantly practical."
She continues: "The soft, ambient glow is perfect for setting the mood during long alfresco evenings. I’d style it on a side table paired with natural textures like wood, stone, or rattan, to create a beautiful contrast with its contemporary metal finish."
Sarah is the founder of Paper Room Creative, where she helps homeowners design beautiful, practical spaces for themselves. Through her mentoring services and inspiring resources, she has supported thousands of women in creating their dream homes without the overwhelm.
The Inspiration Behind the Design
The POSE portable is out to make a statement in interiors.
"POSE is based on conical forms that playfully explore the world of optical physics, through the world of flat lenses — often seen in lighthouses, traffic lights, and in scientific instruments," Tom Dixon tells us. "With anthropomorphic charm, [this lamp] manipulates light into focused, magnified beams with striking effect."
"A strong silhouette and touch of humour define its personality, while precise adjustability and high light output ensure adaptability and functionality for any space — domestic or contract. Balancing functionality with minimal design, POSE radiates light and individuality with equal brilliance."
