The tc2 floor lamp, designed by aldo van den nieuwelaar and manufactured by artimeta in the netherlands in 1972, is a striking example of minimalist design. Known for its clean lines and elegant simplicity, this floor lamp embodies van den nieuwelaar’s commitment to clarity of form and functional beauty. The lamp’s distinctive shape resembles a continuous, one-line drawing, beginning with a hook-like curve at the top and extending vertically after a sharp bend, similar to the form of a paperclip. The lamp’s chrome-plated metal structure gives it a sleek, modern aesthetic, while its solid base contains a transformer that doubles as a counterweight, providing balance and stability. Notably, this particular lamp is an early production model, stamped with the number ‘4,’ indicating it is the fourth chrome version produced—making it a rare and collectible piece. In terms of functionality, the tubular vertical stem of the tc2 is designed to rotate, allowing the user to adjust the direction of light as needed. When illuminated, the lamp emits a beautiful, diffused glow, perfect for creating ambiance in any modern interior. The versatility of the tc2 is enhanced by its ability to function as both a floor and wall lamp, thanks to the keyholes located at the base for easy wall mounting. this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
