Originally designed for St Catherine’s College, Oxford, AJ Oxford is a table lamp, both sleek and highly graphic. Opened in 1963, St Catherine’s College is the work of Arne Jacobsen. The AJ Oxford lamp was designed to be fixed in place and illuminate the establishment’s impressive dining room, which housed long rows of oak tables and seated 350 people. The AJ Oxford lamp, which still lights up St Catherine’s College, perfectly reflects the building’s modernist architectural style.Reissued by Louis Poulsen, the AJ Oxford lamp features a slender foot that blends harmoniously into the circular base. Its graphic style and monochrome colour palette make the AJ Oxford lamp a timeless element that fits perfectly into any interior. To suit all types of space, it is available in several versions: with or without a metal top shade, and in two different heights. The AJ Oxford Louis Poulsen lamp harmoniously illuminates the surface on which it is installed thanks to the soft transparency of opalised blown glass. The version without the upper metal shade is brighter and creates a halo of light around the luminaire.
