The Bibliotheque Nationale in Soft floor lamp was dreamed up by Philippe Starck, based on the of a magical bookshelf where the books seek the light like moths to a flame. Thinking up a visionary floor lamp like Bibliotheque Nationale requires a mind like Philippe Starck’s. The French designer is a modern wizard with the ability to animate objects and create usable art. The lamp is best described as a fairy tale bookshelf where the books do pirouettes in search of the light. Without compromising the formal strictness and simplicity that Starck is known for, this floor lamp offers expanded functions in the form of a bookshelf and a charging station for mobile phones and tablets, courtesy of a USB port in the base. Just plug in and Bibliotheque Nationale will take care of the rest.
