Verso
Light sconce
The power cord is often an afterthought when it comes to the design of electric devices... in fact the cords are often omitted from product photos. But this simple little light fixture turns the tables on this way of thinking making the cord a prominent feature of the design by placing it right out front.

Designer: Jakob Gebert
Link: Belux

Holder and lead of VERSO become central elements of the design. VERSO uses the wall as a reflector. When switched on, it becomes independent of the wall. An illuminating lightspace is generated. Switched off, the simple form integrates discretely into its surroundings. VERSO is installed simply by hanging it on a single screw, as if it were a picture. The light is plugged into the nearest power socket. VERSO can be switched on/off at the integrated switch in the swivel.
