Description
Jasper Morrison’s latest lamp for Flos is an exercise in simplicity; a wall lamp at the service of architecture and space. The embodiment of Super Normal (a recurring theme in Morrison’s work since early on in his career), Oplight looks like a musical note on a pentagram, or, as the designer describes it, ‘the most obvious, definitive shape a wall light could be.’ As Oplight makes its debut, we take this opportunity to ask the designer a few questions about light, designing objects of all scales and how he conceives his supernormal objects.
Our Stylist Says
I love the sleek, minimal design of the small white wall light - it’s a versatile piece that works well in both modern and pared-back interiors. Its understated shape makes it perfect for creating subtle ambient lighting in bedrooms, hallways, or even around mirrors. Styling tip: install it at eye level or slightly higher to avoid glare and highlight architectural features without overwhelming the space. The neutral white finish makes it easy to pair with a range of colour schemes and materials, from warm woods to cool concrete, adding a touch of contemporary style without feeling fussy.

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.
