Folded precision. The Tab lamp looks like a simple sketch brought to life. A folded aluminum shade protects the eye from the light source, casting a crisp, directional beam. It is a study in material efficiency and clean lines.

Folded perfection. Tab is the essence of a lamp drawn in a single stroke. A folded aluminum shade sits on a simple stem, providing precise directional light. It is minimalist, functional, and devoid of unnecessary ornamentation.
