The Anglepoise Type 75™ Desk Lamp Paul Smith Edition Two, which is available for pre-order now and ships next month, has deeper jewel-like hues than the first, evoking the feel of Autumn. A little more restrained than the first edition in terms of color, it combines deep slate, cool grey and a bold orange accent.

“After the success of my first Anglepoise® lamp, I’m very happy to be working with them again on a fresh version. I hope everyone likes it!” – Paul Smith

The Type 75™ Desk Lamp, Paul Smith Edition Two, is a testament to this designer’s ability in instilling modernity and new life into a well-loved design classic.

Edition One, which combines the colors of cornflower, fuchsia and lime is still available as well.

Seen in tandem, each Edition assumes a distinct and contrasting identity, helped, no doubt, by the anthropomorphic form of the lamps themselves: Edition One the more playful, perhaps more feminine of the two, Edition Two its stunning new counterpart.
