With a mastery of form and function, Miguel Milá distilled the three basic elements of any lamp: structure, electrical components and shade. From a cross-shaped base rises a first section of the stem, square in profile, which shifts to a circular form halfway up. A lightweight frame holds the bulb socket, with a shade that swivels around its axis and adjusts in height with a simple rubber ring—like a sail hoisted up a mast. And, of course, its hallmark on/off switch: a gentle tug on the cord.

This member of the TM family—Tramo Móvil en Madera (Moveable Section in Wood)—is the relaxed alternative, the ‘blue jeans’ version of the collection. It was Miguel Milá’s first collaboration with Santa & Cole, launched in 1986, and perhaps the most celebrated work of this pioneer of Spanish industrial design, created when he was just 25 years old.
