Lamps and Geometry
Here’s a quick design tip. If all else fails, turn it 45 degrees. Try it with anything you do because it may just work. Lamp 45 by Jaren Goh is a simple, unpretentious desk lamp engineered from aluminum and steel mesh. Simply by turning the mesh cage and bulb socket 45 degrees, he’s created visual interest. My eye is drawn to things slightly askew in a world that demands uniformity. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I’m loving the raw geometry. If you hate it, turn your head 45 degrees then everything will balance out.
Designer: Jaren Goh for Munkii

Nice concept…. but the big cord is rather distracting. And while the 45 degree seeks to break away from a "world of uniformity", the 45 degrees becomes uniform for this product. Why not call it Lamp X and allow the user to decide what angle suits them?

I want one!

Please make the cord go through the slot cut in the aluminium stand and not off to one side! Then I'd take one.
