Created by French designer Marc Venot, Acrobat is an oblong-shaped table lamp from Normann Copenhagen which has won the German Design Award 2017 for Excellent Product Design in Lighting.
Acrobat has a playful, friendly and futuristic feel. Venot has created an innovative lamp that can be placed both vertically and horizontally in a vast number of positions. The transparent front has a matte finish, enabling Acrobat to spread a soft, diffused light and making it ideal for creating a calm and cosy atmosphere in the room.
The award jury stated: “The Acrobat is distinguished by a surprisingly incisive design language that makes it very distinctive. The position of the luminaire can also be altered as desired, which not only provides variety but also gives the design a delightful touch of playfulness.”
The German Design Award is a highly respected international design prize that discovers, presents and acknowledges unique design talents.
