Greta is a lamp with a human scale. Gabriel Teixidó gave it curves, honest materials and a leather handle, so it feels like a presence in the room rather than an appliance.
Carpyen says it transforms the spaces it lights, through warmth and a natural design.
The Design Story
Teixidó, a Barcelona designer, drew Greta for Carpyen in 2016. The structure is oak, in natural or black, and the shade is saguran, a natural fiber, or linen, with a white option too. A strip of leather forms the handle. The proportions are modest, 90 cm (35.4 in) tall on a 40 cm (15.7 in) base, so it reads as a companion to a chair, not a statement tower. Carpyen makes it in its own Barcelona workshops.
About the Designer
Gabriel Teixidó was born in Barcelona in 1947 and trained at the city's School of Applied Arts and Artistic Trades. A freelance industrial designer since 1970, he calls himself a “fairly industrial” designer: his work avoids fashion and showmanship in favor of formal restraint and quiet usefulness. He won SIDI awards for the Bolero chair in 1986 and for the Columba lamp, made by Carpyen, in 1987, and has received the ADI-FAD Delta de Plata several times.
What interests me is that my designs are useful, that people feel comfortable with them, that they are a help.
Why You'll Love It
Greta feels warm before it is even switched on, because wood, fiber and leather are materials people like to be near. The shade softens the bulb into a diffused glow, and the oak grain gives each lamp its own pattern. At 6.85 kg (15.1 lb) it is stable without being heavy. It suits people who prefer lamps that look as if they belong to the room.
Where It's Best Placed
Greta is happiest beside an armchair, at the end of a sofa, in a bedroom corner or next to a reading nook. Its low height keeps it comfortable in smaller rooms. It is made for indoor, dry spaces.
