The French designer, Inga Sempé, is on a roll ! She has designed a collection of inspirational lights for Hay which are fun, elegant and simple. The designer proves her love of colour and joyous minimalism to us once again. The pleated cotton lampshade has a delicious retro charm. Its traditional look is modernised by a range of vivid and current hues. The golden steel wire base sports clean-cut geometric lines. Its contemporary and industrial style contrasts prettily with the slightly dated lampshade. By playing around with established design conventions, Inga Sempé has updated the silhouette of the traditional table lamp. The Matin lamp will work in any setting, from the sitting room and study to the bedroom. This lamp is fitted with a dimmer and an integrated LED light. The designer, Inga Sempé, on her work : "I try to make simple objects (but not minimalist) with a particular character, which will please people from 20 to 100 years old."
I love this floor lamp for its sleek, understated design and the neutral white textile shade that offers a soft, diffuse light. It works particularly well in contemporary and Scandi-inspired interiors, where its minimalist aesthetic can complement clean lines and natural textures. Practical styling tips include placing it beside a reading nook or in a living room corner to add warmth and ambient glow without overpowering the space. Its slim profile makes it versatile for smaller rooms or to be tucked behind a sofa for a subtle lighting layer. Pairing it with neutral or monochrome furnishings will enhance its clean look, while adding a few textured accessories can elevate the overall vibe.
