\"Table<\/a>
Of mice and lamps.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Designed for Seletti<\/a>, an Italian brand with a penchant for treating furnishings as pop art, Marcantonio Raimondi Malerba\u2019s trio of mouse-themed table lamps are both fun and funky. The mice, named Mac, Lop, and Step, are depicted as sitting, lying, and standing respectively. One can even picture them scurrying mischievously around the house at night (maybe looking for midnight snacks?) using the light bulbs to show the way! The mice are of resin and come in matte white or grey. An upgraded gold finish is also available. Clear 1W E14 LEDs are provided, but red, yellow, and blue color options are available.<\/p>\n

Pictured here are Mac and Lop. Mac measures 2.4\u201d w x 3.2\u201d l x 5.7\u201d h, while Lop is 2.4\u201d w x 8.3\u201d l. 3.2\u201d h. All come with a 3.2\u2019 cable. Small but versatile, these lamps can be perched on shelves to light up books or displays as need.<\/p>\n

\"Pink<\/a>
From Mickey with love\u2026<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Love Edition is a special version of Step for Valentine\u2019s Day. Decked out in matte pink and clutching a heart shaped red LED lamp, this mouse is sure to steal your loved one\u2019s heart! At 2.4\u201d w x 3.2\u201d l x 5.7\u201d h, it is the tallest of all 3 models and comes in all other finishes.<\/p>\n

\"Pendant<\/a>
Lighting in the round.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Cal\u00e9(e) is a collaboration between POOL<\/a> and French lighting manufacturer CVL. The artful juxtaposition of flat circular disks against the dimensional square or cylindrical housing is a celebration of pure geometric forms.\u00a0The pendants are available in 500, 600, 840 and 1,500 lumens at 2700\u00b0\u2009K. The solid brass fixtures offer a choice of satin brass, satin graphite, satin nickel, or satin copper with black or gold textile cables and square or circular canopies.<\/p>\n

\"Floor<\/a>
Fit for a goddess.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Arturo \u00c1lvarez<\/a>\u2018s Gea floor lamp is part of an award winning collection that honors Mother Earth. Gea (also known as Gaea) is the deity who personified Earth in Greek mythology. Sheathed in a stainless steel mesh, the abstract curves of this slender sculptural fixture is reminiscent of a female figure. A key feature is the zipper that can be opened or closed to modulate the quality and quantity of light. The 11\u201d dia x 70.9\u201d h ribbed structure is handmade and uses five E-26 light bulbs. Paint finishes include white, beige, grey and taupe.<\/p>\n

\"Chandelier<\/a>
Blow and Glow.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Hanging nonchalantly in Vienna\u2019s Museum of Applied Arts and Contemporary Art<\/a> among ornate period Beidermeier furniture is this cluster of other-worldly pendants by Andrea Trimarchi and Simone Farresin. It\u2019s part of the Craftica collection commissioned by venerable couturier Fendi to explore the meaning and boundaries of \u2018craft\u2019. Amazingly this ethereal, translucent lighting is made of cow bladders, typically used in Italian sausage casings. By cleverly replacing ground meat with LED lamps and kitting out the bovine organs with bike valves, the architects successfully serve up an inflatable light fixture that\u2019s a feast for the senses!<\/p>\n

\"Modular<\/a>
Light angles.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Created by Spanish designer Ram\u00f3n Esteve<\/a> for Vibia, the faceted surfaces of the Origami wall sconces dramatically highlight the interplay between light and shadow. The wall lamp comes in 2 models, and the new express clusters of 2-4 unit preset configurations provide extra convenience.<\/p>\n

\"Origami<\/a>
Something akin to Lego, these modules can be combined into large groupings on any plane.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Thirty light fixtures can be powered by a single source and are suitable for indoor or outdoor use. Finishes are available in white, brown, terra dark, or green lacquer.<\/p>\n

\"Wall<\/a>
Stretch of imagination.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Elastica by Habits Design Studio<\/a> is an amazing light fixture in the form of an elasticized ribbon. The unique properties of the material allow the lighting to be installed along the same plane or at an angle as a floor or ceiling lamp. Hung from the ceiling, the fixture is held in place by a round counterweight. Lighting control is intuitive \u2013 pulling the strip turns the fixture on or off while slow upward or downward strokes will increase or decrease the light level respectively. The 24V dimmable LED fixture can be powered by an electrical plug or ceiling canopy. Color options include red, yellow, grey, black and blue with matching painted metal bases.<\/p>\n

\"Pendant<\/a>
Great balls of Fire.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

With the stunningly scuptural 28.3c Copper Suspension Light by Bocci<\/a>, it\u2019s possible to create different looks and ambiences over time. The pendants’ 6.5\u201d off-round glass shades are made by a sophisticated multi-step process of blowing and extracting air from molten glass that’s combined with occasional heating and rapid cooling of the orbs. Powered by a 6\u201d white canopy, 28.3 features three Model 28 clear glass exteriors with milk glass diffusers inside, but custom sizes and colors are available. Lighting is dimmable and comes with 20 W Xenon or 1.5 W LED bulbs. Each pendant features a 10 – 30 ft max. copper tubing that\u2019s designed to patinate with time and can be shaped to aim the light at any direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
