Description
Trond Svendgård’s Snowball Floor Lamp for Northern is a modern take on the classic Bauhaus lamp. Its sleek, timeless design builds on Futurist and Cubist styles with its squared base and spherical glass diffuser. Thanks to its small footprint, the Snowball Floor Lamp is perfect for more compact spaces. To really pack a punch with this design, we recommend positioning two on either side of a bed or sofa, creating a sense of balance.
Our Stylist Says
I love this floor lamp for its sleek, minimalist design and beautiful brass finish, which adds a touch of understated elegance to any space. It works particularly well in contemporary or Scandinavian interiors, where clean lines and subtle metallic accents are key. Practical styling tips include placing it beside a modern armchair or sofa to create a cosy reading corner, or using it to highlight a statement piece in a neutral room. Its slim profile makes it ideal for smaller spaces or alongside a console table, where it can bring warmth and sophistication without overpowering the overall aesthetic.

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.
