Block 2 by Röthlisberger

Block 2 from Röthlisberger is an industrial lampshade, turned into a playful, dynamic lighting feature.



The design turns the classic industrial lampshade into a playful, dynamic lighting feature – encasing it in a geometric timber frame. The unique icosahedron frame allows the light to be positioned on one of 20 bases, providing versatile light play in any room. The product’s name rises from the warehouse in which the original shade was found – Block 2.

Neither a pendant, nor conventional floor lamp, Block 2 can be stacked or arranged in countless ways to suit any space. The frame is a combination of steamed acacia struts, held together with colour-matched custom aluminium brackets and blackened Tolix screws. The shades are spun in aluminium to replicate the found original and are available in 4 base variations: black, white, red, anodised aluminium.
