Lighting Gone Linear

Lighting Gone Linear

The Polyline Desk Lamp replaces the mechanical & visual complexity of traditional task lights with the versatility of a linear LED strip & a simple, minimal aesthetic. The linear form produces strong but diffused light for desk or table work, but can be activated in portions to provide localized lighting for specific tasks. Instead of bulky, expensive, & failure-susceptible mechanical joints, it has a fluid, almost seamless form with maximum rigidity and minimal part lines.

Illuminautical

Illuminautical

The shape of the HullOled luminaire was inspired by the skeleton of a ship’s hull and features a central supporting beam and ten outstretched arms each with a separate Philips Lumiblade OLED panels. The unique shape and large construction give the impression that the relatively massive structure is floating effortlessly above the illuminated area.

Irregular Symmetry Light

Irregular Symmetry Light

The Schwarzlicht, named after designed Markus Schwarz, is an ultramodern lighting solution with a simple composition of steel and LED strips. LED strips are positioned on the inside face of each steel section so light is visible from any angle the pendant is viewed. Though its shape appears irregular, the position of the LEDs ensures light is dispersed evenly.

The Perfect LED Desk Lamp

The Perfect LED Desk Lamp

Finally! Someone made an LED desk lamp that can change from a cool blue color to a warmer yellow color with a touch of a button. On top of that, it has a USB port for charging. To add to that pile, it looks pretty sweet. OMG, I used the word “sweet”. I must be short on adjectives because I’m actually really excited about this lampe from Satechi.

Bringing the Blacklight Back

Bringing the Blacklight Back

The term “blacklight” usually brings to mind the tackier part of the 1990s and spring-break-style glowing paint parties, but these modern lamps shows that the blacklight can also be refined and elegant. Both use the basic shape of the classic bulb; one clustered with  free-form curves that emits UV, and the other a single incandescent bulb tinted black for ambient light.

How's it do that?

How’s it do that?

No, you’re not losing your mind… the 2×4 lamp is just designed to deceive! A single 2×4, LED strip and frosted glass are suspended by near-invisible monofilament line, giving it the appearance of floating effortlessly before the eyes. Its decorative red cord is purposely left loose, dangling from the ceiling to enhance the illusion.

Geometric Light Experiment

Geometric Light Experiment

Some lighting designs are all about minimal visual impact on the space in which they live and others, like the Dodeck light, are about filling space! The giant geometric structure that makes up the shade is composed entirely of wastepaper cardboard of a wide variety colors produced locally in Berlin. The individual parts are reduced to geometric basics that come together to form a unique crystalline centerpiece that also creates decorative patterns on ceilings and walls. Get it here!

Wood and Concrete

Wood and Concrete

Elomax’s new DY10 lamp is a stunning contrast between the industrial and organic. The concrete base has two ash wood blades, slightly offset from one another to create a beautiful light pattern. I love the warmth mixed with the cold. Not sure when it’ll be available but I’m definitely adding these to my DO WANT list. I kinda wish there were miniature solar powered ones too designed with a stake so I can line my walkway to the front door.
