Overview

Swedish designer Jonas Wagell initially designed the Peek lamp for Danish brand Audo Copenhagen as a floor lamp to complement a sofa. The design is simple, humble, yet unconventional. Jonas Wagell wanted to create an object that expressed personality and encouraged intuitive engagement "I strive to create simplistic objects and products that are intuitive and easy to understand. In essence, the Peek lamps only consist of three parts: base, stem and shade. The form is reduced to the necessities and the expression becomes iconic.” He explains, “I find that floor lamps are often big and quite dominant in interiors. I needed a lamp which was small and humble and simply “popped up” where you needed some light. The Peek lamp has a heavy base with a long slender stem and a shade, which gracefully peeks over the back of a sofa or armchair. "

The base has a concave top creating a space to store jewellery and other small items. The tip of the stem functions as a dimmer. The shape and silhouette of the Peek table lamp is the same as the Peek floor lamp in smaller proportions. The Peek lamp exists in white or black.

Audo Copenhagen collaborates with international designers to produce high quality design with a crisp, modern Scandinavian look.

Jonas Wagell

Jonas Wagell is a Swedish architect and designer born in 1973. Wagell’s studio JWDA was founded in 2008 and is located in the Old Town of Stockholm. Jonas Wagell is trained in graphic design, furniture design and architecture at schools including Konstfack University College of Arts and Crafts and Berghs School of Communication in Stockholm, as well as Parsons School of Design in New York City. The studio’s architecture work is perhaps most widely known for the prefab house concept Mini House (2007-2012), early recognized by Wallpaper* Magazine which named Wagell one of the “world’s 50 hottest young architects” in 2008. Today Jonas Wagell's work is primarily focused on product and furniture design: “My design is focused on functional items rather than artistic objects. I appreciate products that can be used everyday and be a part of people’s lives. I believe affection and emotion is more important than exclusivity and expensive materials. My aim is to create simplistic objects that are easy to understand and use, but try to add something personal and expressive. I've come to call this philosophy generous minimalism.”
