Adding a designer floor lamp to any room is an easy way to add a touch of class and style.
There are many styles of floor lamp, but these 11 have an extra something. I especially like the retro styles and the ones that look like over sized desk lamps, in particular the yellow Jean-Louis Domecq lamp called Jielde above.

Scandinavia born Greta Magnusson Grossman has a very rich history in interior design, industrial design, and architecture. Greta designed the iconic grasshopper in 1947 for Ralph O. Smith. Thankfully the Grasshopper design was brought back to life in 2011 keeping the original paint and patina.
Greta Magnusson Grossman won a number of awards, but the one that stood out the most for me, was the ‘furniture design’ award from Stockholm Craft Association. This was due to the fact that in 1933 Greta was the first women to receive such an award.
