Description
A beautiful balance of both form and finish, the IC F1’s slender silhouette gracefully defies gravity. Characterised by his use of opulent lustred metal and glass, for this seemingly delicate piece designer Michael Anastassiades was inspired by the impressive acrobatics of street performers, distilling their skill and movement into a sculptural floor light.
Our Stylist Says
I love this lamp for its sleek, minimalist silhouette combined with the striking glossy red finish, which adds a bold pop of colour to any space. It works particularly well in modern or contemporary interiors, offering a sculptural element that can serve as both task lighting and statement decor. Practical styling tips include placing it in a reading nook or beside a statement armchair, where it can provide functional light while elevating the overall aesthetic. Pairing it with neutral tones or monochrome schemes allows the red pop to really stand out, while a more eclectic setup can create an energetic, conversational corner. Its clean lines and vivid hue make it versatile enough to fit in a variety of interiors, from sleek urban apartments to stylish home offices.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
