Designed for HAY by British designer John Tree, Cupola is a series of adjustable lamps that explores the possibilities of providing optimal movement using minimal mechanisms. Inspired by the uncluttered aesthetics of architectural forms, Cupola features a circular domed head that is distinctive in its simplicity.
