A USB port on the bottom side portion of the lamp allows users to charge their smartphone or other device without having to utilize wall outlets or computer ports.

The 'UN' desk lamp design is the design work of João Gilberto Lima and features a very straight-forward aesthetic that offers functionality without clutter. The unit has an LED illumination system that will provide crisp light that's great for a workstation or a living room.
