Bonnett tall

With his signature approach of reducing a design to its essence, designer Lex Pott created a minimal lamp that, quite literally, brings character to a space.

The elegant design allows you to guide the light yourself: as the magnetic lampshade firmly sticks to the lightbulb, you can change its position just as easy as rearranging a hat.

The Bonnett lampshade is made of forged steel, holds a dimmable LED light and comes in a table and a floor version.

Rotterdam-based product designer Lex Pott is a selfconfessed ‘technique freak’. He explores existing methods and materials, using them in different ways to create new end results, or to add a twist to the process. His Facett mirror for puik is a prime example of this.

Design should be about making good things that last much longer than one season. We have this term ‘fast fashion’, we also have ‘fast design’. The ultimate definition of sustainability in terms of product design is just to make good design that lasts. That’s something I hope I can contribute to.”

“I always try to find the essence in form, material and content.”
