A striking example of late 20th-century Swiss lighting design, this Trapez floor lamp by Erwin Egli embodies architectural clarity and technical refinement. A vertical fluorescent light element is held within a slender metal framework, creating a sculptural play of light and shadow that changes with perspective.
The design is unmistakably postmodern yet restrained, balancing industrial precision with an almost minimalist elegance. The dimmable function allows the lamp to shift effortlessly from ambient illumination to a more pronounced, architectural presence, making it equally suited for residential interiors and curated design environments.
Produced by RIBAG Licht AG, a Swiss manufacturer renowned for its technical excellence and innovative lighting solutions, this lamp reflects the brand’s commitment to durability, precision and timeless form.
