Grooves in the platform’s aluminium frame add to its adaptability, allowing for clip-on furniture, such as side tables seen above – the perfect ledge to place a cuppa while lounging in front of the TV. The clip on side tables are a great example of a space saving solution.
Shine a light to the situation. The lamp can be attached to the frame, or stand alone as a traditional floor lamp. And, with its more than flexible head you can turn it whichever way you please – transforming it instantly from ideal reading light to a backlit floor lamp, casting a relaxed evening glow.
