It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s an abstract lamp!

I really love abstract design. Your own interpretation doesn’t just add meaning to the product, it also makes you connect with it on a level. That’s what emotional design is about. The My Bird lamp isn’t really a lamp, nor does it have a bird. Look close, however, and you may just see the bird. It also has a lighting element on the upper corner to justify it being called a lamp. 😛

The My Bird is a design project by Kazakh designer Anastassiya Leonova, and is one of her many explorations in abstract lighting design. What do you think of this one?
