The Valerie Objects No. 2 Marble Floor Lamp by Muller Van Severen continues the studio’s recognisable approach, translating the familiar hanging light into a standing format with a slightly different stance. It keeps that clear, almost drawn line in space, though here the proportions feel a touch more settled, with the marble base giving it a firmer presence in the room.

The construction is intentionally open. A slender metal arm carries the light, anchored by a solid marble foot that does the work quietly in the background. Nothing is concealed or overly worked through, you can follow how it’s made at a glance, which is very much part of its character. It’s simple, though not in a way that feels stripped back for effect.

Placed beside a seating area or in a quieter corner, it gives off a gentle, focused light that softens the space rather than dominating it. There’s something slightly familiar about it, almost like the glow of a street lamp at a distance.
