That idea is at the heart of Alba, a portable lamp by Spanish lighting brand Vibia, designed by the Milan-based architecture and design studio Palomba Serafini Associati. Combining a considered, contemporary form with cordless functionality, Alba offers a simple way to bring light exactly where it is needed.
Its portability is perhaps its most appealing quality. Without cables to restrict its placement, Alba can move effortlessly from a dining table to a bedside table, a living room shelf or even an outdoor setting. It is a small detail that can make a surprising difference, giving users greater freedom to shape the ambience of their surroundings.
The experience is equally straightforward. An integrated switch allows the light intensity to be adjusted easily, while the cordless design means there is no need to think about where the nearest power outlet is. When it needs charging, Alba uses USB-C, making it convenient to recharge and ready for its next setting.
