P.A.M. x Undercover Shade Lamp by Tim Yu
Using macabre imagery to form an eerily symbolic sculptural piece, Jun Takahashi of Undercover joined forces with P.A.M. to create the Shade Lamp.
The scene depicts a tree growing out of (or through?) a skull in a cemetery somewhere with the branches (fittingly) holding the shade. For mood lighting, I like the green and gold eyes, but my favorite part of the lamp has to be the loose coins on top of the stacked books lending a slightly campy, ride-at-Disneyland feel. Available in black or white, it's only available at Undercover flagship stores for ¥85,000.

The Plumen Project: Hulger
When it comes to the lightbulb we've been left with an egg shaped bulb since it's invention. More recently we are seeing the ice cream whip shape of compact fluorescents, but for the iconic symbol of an idea it lacks any innovation. Hulger is determined to change this. Taking advantage of the tubular characterisitc of the compact fluorescent, Hulger recently initiated the Plumen Project,...

Lee West
Lee West is a young English designer who has been working in Paris since 2000. He's quickly made a name for himself "Create(ing) useful objects with maximum material quality" for Ligne Roset, Cinna, Arc international, Paco Rabanne perfumes and Seiko.

Early Future Lamp by Ingo Maurer

Today we'll be bringing you the best of the eco-web, as well as a few of our own finds. The first of its kind to use organic LEDs (OLEDs), Ingo...

Lichtinfusion Lamp
Even if you don't have a strange affinity for hospitals, you might like the Lichtinfusion Lamp by Christain Maas. With lights that hang like old-school glass bottles of saline, I love that the IV rubber tubing doubles as the power cord. If I was designing it, I'd add more realistism by adding wheels like real IV systems allowing patients to go for walks. A...
