{"product_id":"blackjack-flexi-task-lamp","title":"Flexi Task Lamp | Blackjack Lighting","description":"\u003cp\u003eMost task lamps are built around a bulb and a shade. Flexi starts from the light itself. Its head is a flat 6-inch disc, half an inch thin, whose whole face glows; there is no cone, no visible lamp and no hot spot. Behind it, the frame is reduced to three pieces of line: a round base, a short upper arm and a longer lower arm, joined by pivots you can see and understand at a glance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat clarity is the point. Because the light source is an integrated LED rather than a bulb, the head no longer needs depth or ventilation, so it can be drawn as a simple circle and turned in any direction. Folded low it reads as a quiet geometric sketch on the desk; opened to its full 24 inches it becomes a graphic silhouette of disc and diagonals. In Matte Black it is crisp and architectural; in White it almost disappears into a pale room, leaving only the glowing ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDesign notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA face of light, not a bulb:\u003c\/strong\u003e the entire 6 in disc is the luminous surface, giving soft, even light that is comfortable to look past while you work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVisible mechanics:\u003c\/strong\u003e two jointed arms of 9.3 in and 14.3 in and a rotating head, so the lamp is posed rather than simply switched on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProportion:\u003c\/strong\u003e a 7.9 in base only half an inch high anchors the composition without bulk.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuality of light:\u003c\/strong\u003e 480 lumens at 3000K with a 90 CRI, so wood, paper, fabric and skin read true.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThree settings:\u003c\/strong\u003e brightness steps are built into the lamp, from full task light to a low evening glow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eBlackjack Lighting, Buffalo Grove, Illinois\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eFlexi Task Lamp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width:36%;min-width:170px;text-align:left;vertical-align:top;padding:6px 12px 6px 0;\"\u003ePart numbers\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"vertical-align:top;padding:6px 0;\"\u003eFLX-06T-BL-22D-30K (Matte Black);

Trained in industrial design at Syracuse University, Blackman began his lighting career in 1984 at Sonneman Design Group, then founded Blackman Design Associates in 1988, designing decorative and architectural lighting for manufacturers including Kichler. He launched Blackjack in 2013 in suburban Chicago, now based in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, to build fixtures conceived for LED from the first sketch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHis argument is that the LED should change the shape of a light, not just its efficiency. Rather than hiding a new source inside old bulb-and-shade forms, Blackjack designs around the small, flat, cool-running LED: thin discs, slim rods, glowing rings and lenses that let the light itself become the object. In his own words, \"Decorative lighting by its nature is not primarily about optimizing lamp efficiency, it is primarily about decoration!\" Flexi shows that thinking at desk scale: a working lamp reduced to a circle of light and three clean lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eQuestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eWhat makes Flexi different from a typical desk lamp?\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe light comes from the whole face of a thin 6-inch disc rather than from a bulb under a shade.
