22Nov07

alien abduction lamp

“the alien abduction lamp is something new, unique and original for the lamp industry, a really good alternative to the old boring lamps. some of you might already want to purchase this lamp, but this lamp is still in the concept stage. i know that this lamp is awesome, but we’ll have to wait until lasse klein (the designer) will produce this lamp.”

trojan arc lamp

“troja arc lamp recieved the design-report special mention award 2007, according to his designer hansandfranz. hansandfranz was founded in 2006 and is situated in munich, germany. there, designers konstantin landuris and horst wittmann, born 1979 and 1980 in munich, work on solutions for objects and spaces. the troja arc lamp is a really big lamp, than can provide a high quality light for a very large space. the design is simple and modern, but if you want this lamp you’ll need some space, because she is quite big as you can see.”

paperclip lamp

“the paperclip lamp is a really innovative lamp designed by ben collette and david wykes. they decided to make a lamp with a really unusual shape, a paperclip. So they made a big stylish paperclip that is used as a lamp. the paperclip lamp is notonly bendable, it’s posable as well. until now this lamp is just a prototype for now, as the designers are seeking manufacturing partners.”

pipe lamp

“professor fzz’s has created a lamp, inspired by the look of a steam engine water level tube (much like the one on the back of a fire engine). professor fzz really does have a way with steampunk themed light sources, it must be said, and an ingenius use of all those shiny connectors and pipe bits that I so frequently see in my local diy warehouse, but cannot think of an excuse to let me buy.”

retro lamp

“these insanely gorgeous retro creations, created by frank buchwald. i’m guessing the cost of there is close to $10,000, and i’d probably still try to buy one, and my kid wouldn’t go to college. “

zebra lamp

looks like the stripes of a zebra. when the light is on.. on your wall you will see some stripes, from the empty space in between each line.

gravity lamp

“front has a concept design for a new lamp called the gravity that goes totally soft when you’re not in the room and then when you walk in automatically wakes up, gets upright, and starts illuminating your world”

solar lamp

“dutch designer damian o’sullivan, has found a way to bring sunlight indoors with his solar lampion. the ingenuous lamp is composed of 36 standard-sized solar cells that collect sunlight during the day, and then shine at night.”

helium baloon lamp

“the light source consists of 35 ultra strong diodes hanging on a helium balloon, with adjustable floating height. available in two models, one with cord and one limited edition powered by rechargeable batteries. it’s available in white or metallic. the batteries for the limited edition lasts for about 42 hours and the recharging of the batteries take 8 hours. after filling the balloon with helium it will last 2-3 weeks, after that it needs refilling.”

mario mushroom lamp

“the mushroom lamp is a glowing feat of technology. but it’s not the power efficient led’s that will stretch the life of the 4aa battery power supply that has us impressed. it’s the lawsuit-avoiding tech of unlicensed merchandise. clearly reminiscent of the mushrooms floating around in nintendo’s famous mario bros. franchise, buyer beware.”
