The Hashira Floor Lamp

The Hashira Collection is a modern, Nordic take on the traditional Japanese rice paper lantern. Conceived for MENU by Norm Architects, the collection perfectly balances aesthetics and proportion, simplicity and character.

Highlighting two novelties in the series, a wall lamp and a floor lamp, both of which speak the same design language as we know it from the rest of the Hashira series.

The Hashira Floor Lamp iteration rises majestically from the floor with its cylindrical silhouette, combined with elements of western textile lamp shades to lend the design a familiar feel. The Hashira wall lamp looks equally elegant mounted alone on a wall as it does in pairs above a bed or sofa as it spreads its ambient light in the room.
