Design icon of Mid-Century Modern
The Stemlite table lamp from Gubi , designed by Bill Curry in 1962, is considered a milestone in modern lighting design. As the first so-called "total look" lamp, it replaced the classic Stemlite replaced the classic combination of base and shade with a self-contained, sculptural unit with interchangeable modules - a revolutionary approach at the time.
The Stemlite was named "Most Influential Lamp of the Year" by Industrial Design Magazine in 1965, shaped the visual vocabulary of an entire design era and was even used on the set of the original Star Trek series. After decades, the luminaire has been faithfully reissued by Gubi and carefully adapted to today's technical and safety standards.
With its height of 42 cm, the Stemlite table lamp is ideal for sideboards, bedside tables or desks. The opal glass body provides a soft, evenly diffused light, while the organic shape creates a timeless balance between futuristic elegance and homely warmth.
