Future Light buying guide
A floor lamp can add useful task light beside a desk, soften a workroom after hours or provide a flexible source where ceiling light is not enough. The right choice depends on beam direction, control, colour temperature, height and how much floor space the base needs.

Key takeaway
For paperwork and reading, prioritise directed light and control. For video calls and general room comfort, add a softer layer that does not create glare on a screen. Check the lamp height, base footprint and cable or battery arrangement before deciding where it will stand.
Place the light to the side of the dominant hand where possible, avoiding reflections on the monitor and keeping the beam out of the camera line.
Dimming, selectable colour temperature or independently switchable heads can make one lamp useful for concentrated work and a quieter evening setting.
Measure the base location and leave a clear route around it. A tall fitting still needs a stable position away from chair wheels, doors and trailing cables.

Installation and use
Put the base beside the desk, chair or console and check that the lamp does not interfere with drawers, chair movement or a clear walkway.
Direct the light onto the work surface first. A better angle often reduces glare more effectively than simply choosing a brighter setting.
Check the listing’s voltage, lamp cap, battery and indoor-use information. Do not use an indoor IP20 fitting in a damp or exposed location.
Bulb note: The Mother & Son and Industrial Steel models depend on the selected lamp or bulb for their final light output. Check the product listing and choose a suitable E27 or compatible lamp before ordering.
Send the room dimensions, desk position, preferred light colour and whether a power point is available. Future Light can help narrow the shortlist around the actual office layout.
