First count the free floor space and the height of the stem: a tall vertical model dresses a corner, while an adjustable-head floor lamp lights a sofa or a worktop. The whole selection is in metal, contemporary in style, designed for indoor use, with LED, E27, G9 or E14 sockets.

Which design metal floor lamp should you choose for a living room?
Measure the free floor space and the useful height: a tall stem places the light above the sofa back, a compact model with an adjustable shade slips in next to an armchair. Then check the socket, because it decides which bulb you can screw in. The whole collection is designed for indoor use.
Design metal floor lamp: the key points before buying
Three measurements are enough. The base first: 17.5 cm in diameter on Trigo, which slips between a sofa and a wall, against Ø 50 cm on Zelio, which needs a clear corner. Then the height of the stem, because that is what places the light point. Finally the orientation of the head. The selection designed for the living room brings together the models that meet these three constraints.
Modern metal floor lamp: the model you can place without any work
The Discera floor lamp reaches 183 cm, with an LED and a dimmer: you stand it on the floor, plug it in, adjust it. No drilling, no wiring. In a bright or graphic living room, the dark finishes of our black selection blend into the decor without weighing it down.
What light does a design metal floor lamp give?
The vast majority of the models in this collection run on LED, with a warm white light, around 2700 to 3500 K, suited to both the living room and the bedroom. Some models use an E27, E14 or G9 socket: the bulb is then chosen separately, in the light temperature you want.
Design LED floor lamp and warm white light (2700 to 3500 K)
In general, a warm white between 2700 and 3500 K suits living and rest rooms: the light leans slightly yellow, without the bluish look of a cool white. The design LED floor lamps in the collection are listed in this range. For a living room or a bedroom, that is the reference to ask about before buying.
Design halogen: what an E27 or E14 socket changes
An E27 or E14 socket takes both an LED bulb and a design halogen bulb, since the base is standard. The choice therefore stays open, and can be changed later without buying a new floor lamp. An integrated LED module, on the other hand, cannot be replaced, but needs no maintenance.
Industrial design metal floor lamp or modern metal floor lamp: what is the difference?
All the models in this collection are contemporary in style, and some are also classed as modern. It is the material and the finish that make the difference: metal alone, metal and glass, metal and iron, metal and cork or metal and clay. Thin stems and arms lean towards an industrial spirit, glass shades towards the modern.
Industrial design metal floor lamp: stems, thin arms and visible material
The Zelio with its zigzag arm sums up this register: black metal structure left visible, cylindrical cork shade, E27 socket. The industrial style selection gathers the pieces where metal and iron are not dressed up.
Modern metal floor lamp: glass shades and round lines
Solane and its thin brass stem shows the other end of the spectrum: a 1590 mm stem and a cylindrical shade in amber glass, which diffuses a warm, golden light. It is the models with glass shades that give this effect. For a warm wood look, the wood and metal combination plays the same card.
Which colour of design metal floor lamp should you choose: black, gold or white?
Black is very present in the collection, alongside white, gold, grey and brown. A black stem blends into a bright or graphic interior, a gold one warms a dark wall, a white one disappears on a light wall. The choice is made according to the wall and the floor in front of which the floor lamp stands.
Black metal floor lamp: the dominant colour
It is the most common colour, combined with metal, iron, glass and sometimes cork. In a living room corner, it structures the space without drawing the eye. The design black floor lamps remain the safe choice when the rest of the furniture is light wood, beige or white.
Gold, grey, brown: matching the stem to the wall and the floor
Gold and brass warm a dark wall or a slightly cold room, and pair well with glass. Grey, often combined with clay, suits a neutral interior and an office. Brown and bronze accompany warm atmospheres. The gold finishes and the white versions cover these two directions.
Which format and shape of design metal floor lamp for your room?
Tube and round shapes make up most of the collection, ahead of balls, domes and a few more original pieces. The listed formats range from about 35 cm high for compact models to more than 180 cm for tall stems, with bases from 17 to 50 cm in diameter depending on the model.
Tube and round shapes: what it changes on the floor
A tube takes up little floor space and reads as a vertical line; a round shape or a dome takes up more space and becomes an object in its own right in the room. Here are the format and socket references noted on a few models in the collection.
| Model | Listed format | Socket or power | Intended rooms |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discera | H 183 cm, adjustable disc | LED, dimmer | Living room, office, bedroom |
| Solane | 1 590 mm high, thin stem | 20 W | Living room, bedroom |
| Trigo | Shade 12 x 14 cm, base 17.5 cm | E14, 10 W | Living room, bedroom, office |
| Zelio | Zigzag arm, Ø 50 cm | E27, 40 W | Living room, office, bedroom |
| Chrysos | Ø 120 mm, H 385 mm, adjustable tube | LED, 2.5 W | Living room, office, bedroom |
| Dorbuto | H 500 mm, tilted head | LED, 4 W | Living room, office, bedroom |
Adjustable floor lamps: when the head needs to move
As soon as you need to light a specific surface, a coffee table, a reading armchair or a keyboard, the head must be able to pivot. The gold Chrysos tube and its black equivalent Clarina, both at 2.5 W, are made for this. Find them in the adjustable-head models, alongside the modern floor lamp section.
Which socket and bulb should you plan for on a design metal floor lamp?
The sockets noted in the collection are the integrated LED module, then E27, G9 and E14 sockets. An E27 or E14 socket takes an LED bulb as well as a design halogen bulb, a G9 remains reserved for small shades, an LED module cannot be replaced. The listed powers range from 2.5 W to 40 W depending on the model.
Integrated LED module or E27 socket: what changes in use
An integrated LED module is never replaced and cannot be adjusted: you choose the floor lamp for its final light. An E27 socket, on the other hand, lets you change the bulb, the power and the colour temperature whenever you want. That is the main difference between the two families.
G9 and E14: the small sockets of compact shades
G9 and E14 sockets equip models with a reduced shade, such as clay floor lamps or small tilted formats. The corresponding bulbs are smaller and fit into a tight space. Here is the breakdown noted across the collection.
| Socket | Share of the selection | Compatible bulb | Replacement |
|---|---|---|---|
| Integrated LED module | 37% | Supplied with the floor lamp | Not replaceable |
| E27 | 27% | Screw bulb, LED or design halogen | Replaceable |
| G9 | 20% | Compact G9 bulb | Replaceable |
| E14 | 10% | Small screw bulb | Replaceable |
How do you install and maintain a design metal floor lamp?
A design metal floor lamp stands on the floor, with no drilling: set the base flat, then plug the cable into a wall socket. All the models in the collection are IP20, so for indoor use only. The orientation of the head and the height adjustment are done once the fixture is in place.
Setting up a stable floor lamp without drilling
Clear the chosen corner, check that the floor is level and that the base rests over its whole surface, then plug it in. A wide base is more stable, a narrow base needs a very level floor. IP20 indicates indoor use only: for a terrace, you need to turn to the outdoor models, not to be confused.
Adjusting height, orientation and dimmer
Some models can be adjusted in height once in place, like the Dore floor lamp which goes up to 250 cm. Others are content with an adjustable head. The dimmer, for its part, only equips part of the selection: check this point before choosing. To browse the whole range, see all our lighting.
Design metal floor lamp for the bedroom and the office: which one to choose?
The bedroom and the office are among the rooms intended for almost all the models in the collection. For working, an adjustable head and a light directed towards the work surface are preferred. For the bedroom, a low shade and a moderate intensity are enough, with a dimmer on only part of the models.
LED floor lamp for the office: directing light onto the work surface
On a desk, the light must fall on the surface, not in your eyes: a tilted head or an adjustable tube settles the question. Chrysos, Clarina and Dorbuto, at 2.5 W and 4 W, are made for this use. See the selection for the office and the black LED floor lamps.
Bedroom: low shade and moderate intensity
In a bedroom, a low shade avoids sending light back towards the bed and a moderate intensity accompanies reading and falling asleep. Models with an E14 socket, like Myella, are in this spirit. The design LED catalogue lets you filter by room.
Ordering a design metal floor lamp: delivery, returns and payment
The Designix customer service answers questions about the socket, the height or the orientation before the purchase as well as after. Browse the collection grid to compare the gold finishes, then go back up to the rest of the lighting range if you are also looking for a ceiling light or a wall light to match the same metal.
Frequently asked questions about design metal floor lamps
Can a design metal floor lamp stay in a bedroom?
Yes, the bedroom is one of the rooms intended for almost all the models in the collection. A warm white light, a low shade that does not send light back towards the bed, and a dimmer when the model offers one are preferred.
Which design metal floor lamp should you choose for a living room?
First choose the floor space and the height of the stem: a large vertical model like Discera, 183 cm high, dresses a corner, a model with an adjustable shade lights a sofa. Then check the socket, E27, E14, G9 or integrated LED module, according to the bulb you want.
Design metal floor lamp: which bulb should you plan for?
It all depends on the socket noted on the model: integrated LED module on a large part of the selection, then E27, G9 and E14. An E27 or E14 socket takes an LED bulb as well as a design halogen, in the chosen light temperature.
What height of design metal floor lamp for a living room?
The listed formats range from about 35 cm for compact models to more than 180 cm for tall stems, and the Dore floor lamp goes up to 250 cm. Near a sofa, a tall stem places the light point above the back; near an armchair, a compact adjustable model is enough.
How do you install a design metal floor lamp without drilling?
It simply stands on the floor: clear the chosen corner, check that the base rests flat, then plug the cable into a wall socket. All the models in the collection are IP20, so to be installed indoors only, never outdoors.
