Floor lamps are therefore versatile and can also beautifully emphasize your living style.

Arc lights

The light falls from above or from the side and reaches you, for example, when reading on the couch.

The KARE arc lamps range from puristic examples with one or more swiveling arms to retro models with a spherical lampshade..
