Z-Bar Gen 4 Desk Lamp
The original Z-Bar design was Koncept’s flagship product in 2004, and has enjoyed tremendous global success. “Generation 4” is the fourth revamp of the original Z-Bar design. An improved joint design allows for a cleaner profile and greater articulation. The optics have been improved so that multiple, harsh shadows are avoided; instead the user gets soft, even shadows. Z-Bar Gen 4 maintains some beloved characteristics such as a minimalist profile, high flexibility and compatibility with various desk and wall mounts. The lamp also works with alternative desk bases such as Koncept's Qi base (wirelessly charges compatible devices). Users can power on/off or adjust the brightness of the light by gently touching a dimmer strip... More

Pixo Plus
Although it embodies an emotive, humanistic form, Pixo Plus, at its conceptual core, is an ultra-efficient task light. Functionality and necessity drive its design. It makes the most of its frame and its space through every feature: Pixo's swiveling light shade and highly maneuverable arm lend it maximum utility within a minimal footprint. Its compact, energy-saving LED light is infinitely adjustable, allowing the user to focus warm, glare-free light wherever needed. For added convenience, the elegant form factor features full-range dimming via its easy to use optical switch.

Lim360
LIM360 is a personalized, high-performance task lamp whose slim, compact frame allows light to assert its presence. The second iteration of the Lim lamp concept, its efficient form shapes a plane of illumination powered by an equally efficient power source — a continuous array of high-output, energy-saving LEDs. Furthering its suitability for workspaces, it combines seamless, 360° arm rotation with an integrated USB port for charging mobile devices. The base offers a soft, textured refuge for such devices and personal items. LIM360 is available in a range of neutrals and expressive colors. More
Sobre
Ideal for providing consistent, energy-efficient light to extended work surfaces, Sobre is highly suited for public environments such as lecture rooms, libraries and co-working spaces. Sobre is offered as a stand-alone piece or multiple modules that can be connected together. Supported by 18" tall vertical stems, the 3' or 4' LED light bar is manually rotatable (up to 180 degrees). The subtle control panel features a touch strip for dimming/power and integrated occupancy sensor to maximize energy savings. Sobre is available in metallic black and silver finishes. The lights are very durable and made to withstand heavy public use. Mounting options include through-table mounts and, less permanently, desk clamps. Both options use mi... More
Gravy
Gravy Desk Lamp is a unique desk lamp that brings style and warmth to your home or office. Edge lit technology in a circular LED head provides a soft, evenly distributed glow of warm light. The solid wood bar and base are offered in three different natural woods: light Maple, White Oak, and rich Walnut. A delicate aluminum stand supports the wood bar and LED head. Controlling the light is easy: simply tap the center of the underside of the LED head to turn on or off, and touch and hold to dim or brighten the light. Gravy is highly adjustable, providing the user with perfect light placement. This simple yet elegant combination of wood, aluminum and LEDs works beautifully to illuminate any space. More
Z-Bar
The Z-Bar collection broke the mold for desk and floor lamp design and introduced the world to Koncept’s contemporary stylings. Industrial Designer Peter Ng tossed away the bulb-and-shade for a flexible, streamlined design that featured LEDs and three simple bars. Add an intuitive on/off functionality with a dimming option and the rest is history. With several sizes to choose from, there’s a Z-Bar for every need. More
Polo
The fluidity of its movements and its total stability make this flexible fitting a light source which can be moved anywhere without cluttering your desk or taking up too much valuable space. Its integrated LED technology allows one to direct the beam with the utmost precision, for a light that is both focused and warm, yet highly useful. The Polo comes with a diffuser made from injected aluminium, arms and built-in swivel joints CNC milled from an aluminium block, and a rotary switch located in the upper part of the headstock. Available in both black and white, it is supplied with a range of accessories: base, clamp, table or wall bracket, and, more recently, a floor stand, which makes it an ideal contender as a reading lamp.
