In his latest collaboration with Anglepoise, designer Paul
Smith revisits a unique patchwork color scheme previously
created for a unique version of the Land Rover Defender.
The palette now becomes the inspiration for another classic
British design, the Type 75™ lighting collection created
for Anglepoise by renowned British industrial product
designer, Sir Kenneth Grange.
Paul’s original 27-color palette alluded to the Defender’s
past as a multi-purpose utilitarian workhorse, with reference
to its use on the farmyard and in the emergency services.
In his Edition Four palette, British countryside colors
dominate: deep, earthy burgundy, leaden grey, sky blue,
dappled green and rich clay. Just a dash of fluorescent
yellow adds that element of surprise we have come to
expect from a designer renowned for his mastery of color.
