Our Fall 2026 edition features new cultural and civic landmarks in Belgium, Toronto and Los Angeles. Plus, we explore the greening of Paris and the social ethos behind the game-changing residential work of Winnipeg firm 5468796.

A glowing oval lamp with a teal base sits on a shelf next to several books and a small glass vase with a dried twig.

Known for its design-forward and minimalist tech accessories, Native Union recently introduced the Portable Light to its POP collection of products. 

A black square wall clock, a light yellow table lamp, and a green coiled charging cable sitting on a pale green bedside table.

Its first dedicated, standalone portable LED lamp, the Portable Light from Native Union reimagines the form of a classic lantern into one that is sleek, streamlined and defined by a palette of bright and poppy colour options.

Intentionally designed to feel familiar, the Portable Light has an appealing retro-tech look and intuitive functionality: the clean-lined square base features an analog dial that adjusts brightness with a simple turn and changes colour temperature with a gentle push.

The lamp has three light modes, Cool White for focused tasks, Neutral White for even and balanced everyday illumination and Warm Amber to create softer settings for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The Portable Light from Native Union is equipped with a 5,000mAh latest-generation battery, which delivers up to 120 hours (or five full days) of battery life on a single charge. A USB-C port is also integrated in the base, allowing for personal devices like smartphones and earbuds to be powered up even when no wall outlet is available. The brand’s popular POP charging cable — which resembles an old-school landline telephone’s cord — comes with each lamp to deliver high-speed charging.

A clever built-in handle on the underside of the base means the Portable Light is easy to carry where needed and can be hung from a hook or even a tree branch. The portable lamp is certified for indoor and outdoor use, and can withstand light splashes and rainfall.

The base of the Portable Light is made from 30 per cent recycled polycarbonate, while its shade is crafted from recycled PET. Six cheerful colourways are available for the lantern and matching coiled charging cord: Pine, Alarm Red, SandStone, Lemon, Candy and Azur.
