About Us
Since 1935, Anglepoise has led the way in lighting design — creating innovative, spring-balanced lamps that perfectly marry form and function. It all began with British engineer George Carwardine and his groundbreaking invention: a task lamp that moved as fluidly as the human arm. That simple, brilliant idea changed the way we experience light.
From our headquarters in Denmead, UK, Anglepoise has grown into a global icon. Our lamps have illuminated design studios, museums, and homes across the world — trusted by those who value creative thinking and enduring quality. Because we believe great design should not only work beautifully — it should last a lifetime.
The people behind the light
Anglepoise has always been part of people’s lives, from the desks and studios where ideas take shape to homes where the same lamp has been used and loved for generations. Navigators and Lightkeepers celebrate those relationships, bringing together the people creating with Anglepoise today and those helping to carry its story forward.
