Philippe Starck interprets the outdoor lantern as a compact architectural object, giving In Vitro Unplugged a clear profile that feels equally refined on a private terrace or within a hospitality setting. The aluminium and glass structure is balanced by an integrated handle, allowing the lamp to move easily from a dining table to lounge seating as the evening develops. Its restrained geometry creates presence without visual weight, while the warm 2700K light supports an inviting atmosphere for conversation, dining and relaxation. Designed for open-air living as well as carefully composed interiors, the outdoor flos lamp combines sculptural clarity with the practical freedom expected from a contemporary portable light.

Flos In Vitro Unplugged: precise light in a portable format

The Flos In Vitro Unplugged portable outdoor lamp reflects the technical refinement associated with Flos, combining Edge Lighting technology with direct illumination in a form designed for intuitive everyday use. An optical touch sensor offers four settings—100%, 50%, 3% and OFF—so the output can shift from a brighter pool of light to a discreet evening accent with a simple gesture. The integrated LED produces a warm 2700K tone that complements stone, timber, metal and outdoor textiles, while the source can be replaced by qualified personnel to support long-term maintenance. This balance of control, material quality and architectural restraint makes the lamp suitable for residential terraces, restaurant tables and design-led outdoor lounges.

Layered schemes with Flos Table lights

Placed in dialogue with Flos Table Lights, In Vitro Unplugged can extend a coordinated lighting concept from interior surfaces to balconies, patios and sheltered open-air areas. Its rechargeable battery provides up to six hours of operation, freeing tables and seating zones from visible cables and fixed power points. USB-C charging keeps daily use straightforward, and the charging cable is included. The handle adds a practical tactile detail, making it easy to reposition the lamp as furniture arrangements or activities change. Used individually, it creates an intimate luminous focus; arranged across several tables, it establishes a measured rhythm suited to boutique hotels, restaurants and refined residential entertaining.

Cordless versatility within Flos Portables

As part of the unique Flos Pendants, In Vitro Unplugged offers a sophisticated response to flexible outdoor illumination. The family is available in Terracotta, Anthracite, White, Deep Brown, Forest Green, Black and Pale Green, allowing designers to coordinate the lamp with natural materials, architectural finishes or more expressive colour palettes. Its compact footprint works well on dining tables, side surfaces and low lounge furniture, while the aluminium and glass construction gives the object a durable, polished character. The In Vitro Unplugged rechargeable table lamp brings together mobility, four-step light control and warm visual comfort, offering architects, hoteliers and design-conscious buyers an elegant way to shape atmosphere wherever people gather.
