Louis Poulsen Rumee lamp by Gabriel Tan redefines modern illumination, combining sculptural form with gentle versatility. Inspired by the curve of wide-brimmed hats, the lamp features a tilted shade that directs light softly downward while diffusing a warm ambient glow in all directions. Compact and cordless, it serves as both décor and functional companion for intimate spaces. The name “Rumee” merges the Danish word for “space” with a sense of personal connection, reflecting its balance between atmosphere and emotion.
Crafted for adaptability, the lamp includes three dimming levels and operates on a rechargeable lithium battery with USB-C charging. Its IP44 rating ensures resilience indoors or in covered outdoor settings. Offered in Cloud White, Earth Grey, and Night Blue, the Rumee 220 embodies Tan’s approach to contemporary design, inviting light to feel both personal and poetic.
