Light & Everyday Function

  • Soft, Diffused Light

    The Mino Washi shade gently diffuses light across its tall surface, creating a soft ambient glow rather than harsh, direct illumination.

  • Ambient Two-Bulb Lighting

    Two light sources illuminate the elongated shade from within. Final brightness depends on the bulbs selected, making SLENDER best suited to ambient and mood lighting rather than focused task lighting.

  • Tall, Space-Efficient Form

    At 48.8" (124cm) high and only 7.8" (20cm) wide, SLENDER creates the presence of a floor lamp while keeping its footprint visually light.

  • Flexible Placement

    Its narrow vertical form works especially well beside sofas, near a bed, or in corners that benefit from a warm layer of ambient light.
