Beat light is one of Tom Dixon's most famous lighting collections. Inspired by the sculptural simplicity of copper pots and traditional Indian vases, these lamps fit perfectly into any interior. The brass parts are hammered by hand using traditional techniques. The outside of the diffuser is smooth, contrasting with the reliefs on the inside. The reflective properties of brass allow a beautiful diffusion of light. The collection has expanded and now includes a table lamp and a floor lamp, both with an articulated arm and a cast-iron base. Each model is available in black and brass or entirely in brass.
Tom Dixon is one of the most innovative designers of his generation, a true avant-gardist. Born in 1959 and of British origin, he spent many years as artistic director at Habitat, before setting up his own publishing house in 2002.

Buckingham Palace awarded him the Order of the British Empire for services to design in 2001. Tom Dixon is passionate about working with materials and technical innovations. He loves working with raw materials and modernising and refining them for our interiors.
