Talk was created by Marge Arkitekter as part of an interior design commission for the Rica Talk Hotel. “The idea for the lamp arose from the need for a bedside lamp in the hotel rooms. We were clear in our own minds about exactly what we needed, but we couldn’t find what we wanted in the market. So we decided to design Talk ourselves,” says Katarina Grundsell of Marge Arkitekter.
The torch-like design is a way of telling the user that the on/off switch is found on the top of the lamp. Stitched leather trim around the rim of the shade adds a highly distinctive design touch and makes the lamp easy to hold while adjusting the angle of the beam.

The table lamp has an angle-adjustable shade and a design that expertly demonstrates how successful the result can be when an innovative design idea is infused with a clear streak of inspiration.
