Originally designed in the 1970s by André Ricard, the Duo is a table lamp conceived with a clear purpose: to provide functional light for those working intensively with documents, without disrupting the visual harmony of professional spaces. Designed for executive desks or shared work tables, its design prevents a large screen from obstructing the view of those sitting opposite. Duo illuminates precisely, without imposing itself on the visual horizon.

Composed of two opposing, symmetrical, rotating glass shades, its structure evokes an almost philosophical balance: yin and yang, light directed toward one and then toward the other. Each diffuser can be independently oriented, adapting the light output as needed: an opaque version focuses light on the work surface, while the translucent version provides more ambient lighting.

It's switched on via a simple, intuitive central button. The base is narrow, elegant, and perfectly proportioned. After years of disappearance, the Duo has been reissued in 2023 with the endorsement of its designer and an improved user experience thanks to LED technology: more efficient, more comfortable, and more relevant than ever.

Selected by MIDIMAL for its functional and serene design, the Duo lamp represents an idea that has always made sense: illuminating with precision, without obstructing, without unnecessary embellishments, with balance.
