Tripod HM8 Floor Lamp

The Tripod HM8 Floor Lamp is crafted from lacquered steel with brass details, reflecting the clean minimalism of Copenhagen-based duo Hvidt & Mølgaard. Considered Old Masters of mid-century Danish design, their pieces often lend a sculptural element to the spaces they inhabit. Tripod is no exception.

Striking a delicate balance between the stark simplicity of its form and the softness of its curved edges, the Tripod offers easy articulation and for more precise light, a swivel joint has been developed.

Named after the three-point composition of its base, the lamp’s precise and simple look characterises Hvidt & Mølgaard’s aesthetic. Its sculptural and sturdy design involves a heavy-weight spherical component at its base, which helps maintain constant balance and ensures that Tripod remains permanently positioned to offer a generous diffusion of light from beneath its brim.

Hvidt & Mølgaard first produced sketches of Tripod in 1953 – yet the lamp never found its way to production. Now, many years later, &Tradition offers this elegant piece as part of its  extensive lighting collection.
