Detour

Detour is a floor lamp. With their minimalist lightness, the members of the Detour family provide ample evidence that reducing matters to a simple yet strong line is the key to creating a timeless aesthetic. The characteristic element found in all models – and which they have their name to thank for – is the lateral sweep of the narrow, powder-coated steel arc. A distinguishing feature, it takes a detour around the lampshade and suspends it, seemingly floating in mid-air. The beautifully-proportioned black marble base gives the table and lamps a stable grounding while at the same time underscoring their simplicity through an understated elegance. This balance transforms Detour into a series of versatile home accessories that are every bit as impressive on their own as they are as a family. Every detail is precisely crafted – from the velvet base pad and the elegant textile power cord to the easy-to-operate dimmers in the lamps.

Inspired by one of the Wiener Werkstätte company’s trademark decorative features – the inclusion of both linear geometrics and sweeping curves – the memorable contour of the Detour collection was born. The series includes a side table and lamps in three sizes.
