Pablo Designs Pixo Plus LED Task Lamp – Wireless Charging + USB-C

Maximum utility in a minimal footprint: a compact task lamp that pivots three ways and charges your phone wirelessly on its base.

Pixo Plus is a compact LED task lamp with a formed aluminum arm that rotates 360°, tilts 180°, and a shade that rotates 360°, so you can put warm, glare-free light exactly where you need it. Touch the optical switch to dim from 100% to 10%. The base charges a phone wirelessly and has a USB-C port, with triple the charging power of the original Pixo.

Designed by Pablo Pardo and Fernando Pardo, in eight colors: White, Silver, Graphite, Azure, Glow, Orange, White/Brass and Graphite/Brass. The original Pixo desk lamp, the first of this family, won a Red Dot Award for product design in 2012.
