FLOS Lounge Gun - floor lamp, gold-black

Prominent floor lamp Lounge Gun with a socially critical message, designed by Philippe Starck

You may find the design of the floor lamp shown provocative, because a gun as a lamp base is anything but ordinary and quite debatable. However, this also shows that designer Philippe Starck has succeeded in intelligently realizing his intention of attracting attention. Indeed, it is not a matter of considering the floor lamp as a symbol of power, but rather it must be pointed out that it carries a socially critical message. Indeed, it is very true that weapons all over the world contribute significantly to discord and cause endless loss of life. The perpetual and seemingly never-ending desire for profit is a supporting element for the production and sale of weapons, and it is precisely such unethical behavior and morally indefensible economic mechanisms that the designer floor lamp is intended to draw attention to. Therefore, the inscription on the base of the table lamp is not by chance "Happiness is a hot gun".

If, as was mentioned at the beginning, the design of the lamp is debatable, then this is not necessarily something that is to be evaluated exclusively negatively, because discussions about the grievances in this world are desired and suggestions for solutions are welcome!

FLOS donates a not insignificant portion of the proceeds to the non-profit organization Frères des Hommes Europe.

For over 50 years, the company FLOS exists, which designs with a squad of renowned designers special and high-quality lamps, which are widely recognized internationally and have received many awards.
