A wall lamp that illuminates a whole room, Oplight by Jasper Morrison is a future-proof lamp, conceived specifically with sustainability and longevity in mind and to be thoroughly recyclable at its end-of-life. No glue was used to assemble the different parts. The specially-designed clear ridged panel snaps on and off of the body to allow for replacing the LED board, which is highly efficient and built specifically to be swapped out if needed.

Oplight is a wall lamp at the service of architecture and space. The embodiment of ‘Super Normal’ (a recurring theme in Morrison’s work), Oplight looks like a musical note on a pentagram, or, as the designer describes it, ‘the most obvious, definitive shape a wall light could be.’ The light source is a board of LEDs which are covered with a clear but ridged panel that deflects the light out at an angle away from the wall.

“The quality of the light is also very important. Fortunately, uplighting is one the best applications for the type of light LEDs provide. I like the idea that you could use the smaller Oplight in an old country cottage and the larger one in a high ceilinged apartment or house as well as in the corridor of an office. I think it will contribute well to the atmosphere of a wide range of spaces and situations. Hopefully it will prove to be Super Normal in the sense that it makes good atmosphere without being obtrusive or even noticeable.” --Jasper Morrison
