Anagram is a table lamp designed by Sam Weller for HAY, combining functionality with strong visual personality in a design that updates the familiar desk lamp typology with an original, contemporary aesthetic. The lamp features a generously curved, glossy shade mounted on two split anodised aluminium legs — a structural configuration that gives the design a dynamic, almost architectural quality. The contrast between the curved form of the shade and the angular geometry of the split legs creates a productive formal tension that makes the Anagram immediately recognisable as a considered design object rather than a generic functional lamp.

The durable sheet steel shade and aluminium tube legs are constructed for long-term use, and the lamp's robust physical presence is balanced by its intuitive functionality — the design performs its task of providing directed, practical light efficiently while contributing a distinct character to the spaces it occupies. The finish options available within the HAY range allow the Anagram to be specified across a range of interior colour directions.

The Anagram is well suited to home offices, studio desks, and workspace settings where a task lamp of genuine design character is required alongside practical light output. Its strong visual presence also makes it an effective accent piece in residential living rooms, shelving displays, and hospitality settings where a lamp functions as both a light source and a design statement. Available in multiple finish options from HAY's collection.

The Anagram is produced by HAY to the material and construction standards consistent with the brand's approach to functional, long-lasting design objects.

Available as a 2D DWG drawing and 3D model.
