The greatest lamp since sliced bread!

Bread is quite an inspirational piece of food. It lends itself to almost any cuisine. However, saying that bread is inspirational to Lighting Design sounds a little strange, yet the Bread lamp by Yicong Lu does a pretty solid job of looking like a lamp inspired by a loaf of bread.

The lamp is quirky at its core, but somehow strangely comforting to look at. Individual slices of light move up and down, thereby increasing and decreasing the intensity of the lamp. There’s nothing more to this simple and adorable concept…and there doesn’t need to be!

Designer: Yicong Lu
