Mayday Outdoor is the outdoor version of Konstantin Grcic's famous lamp for Flos. Inspired by worksite lamps, Mayday is a Light and practical hand-held lamp. It has a handle for hanging anywhere. Mayday can also stand up or lie down without heating its base. The handle can also be used to wind the 6-metre cord fitted with an IP44 Schuko plug. The IP65 switch is located on the top of the lamp.
Born in Munich, Germany, in 1965, Konstantin Grcic trained as a cabinetmaker at Parnham College, Dorset, before studying industrial design at the Royal College of Art in London. From 1990 to 1991 he worked in Jasper Morrison's studio in London. In 1991, he set up his own structure in Munich, "Konstantin Grcic Industrial Design", which served as both his workshop and studio. Since then, he has been designing furniture, objects and lamps for renowned manufacturers such as Magis and Flos. An adept of a functionalism that is "contemporary, feasible and concrete", his creations are not simply minimalist, but radical, pure, direct and simple, while never repeating themselves. With the publisher Plank, Konstantin Grcic is experimenting with cantilever seating and has created Miura, a stackable bar stool with sharp lines.
