Nostalgic Lighting Inspired by the Battersea Power Station in London

July 20, 2017

Colin Patrick Dinley had a very specific image in mind when he designed the Battersea lighting series for Italian company Toscot: the electrical insulators found at the Battersea Power Station in London. The lights, made of glazed terracotta, can be mixed and matched and used indoors and outdoors. See the full line at Toscot.
