Winter becomes an uplifting time of the year when you walk into a room that is surrounded by mists of warm, soothing light. The wide array of options for modern lighting on the market today can bring a sense of mellifluous relaxation to your living room or an enhanced brilliance to your work area.
No longer do we need to be plagued with plain, bright bulbed lamps of yesteryear. Prestigious designers and artists are blazing the way into a new society with their creativity. One such artist is Simon Karkov and his hanging lamp that brings any room alive with its unique presence. Guaranteed to be a winner in any room, this organic, floating work of art brings a simple aura of pleasing light to any area needing a touch of drama. A designer for the Normann Copenhagen Companies in Denmark, this well-known artist uses simplicity and taste in everything he does. The Karkov hanging lamp can be utilized as a single ceiling fixture or as a grouping for significant exposure.
Venezuelan industrial designer, Pablo Pardo, has a flair for creating illusions out of simple materials that are breathtaking. Pablo's Bel'Occhio acts as both a movable spotlight and a table lamp that spreads light gracefully around a room. The design is modern, artistic and easily stands alone as a mystifying piece of work.
Illumination becomes transparent with the Pablo light bench, an original design that serves as either a bench or a showcase for a favorite statue or prized art piece. A flat base made of white acrylic and supported by two clear ends, the lighted interior softly lights a hallway or gives meaning to a special piece.
Created with multiple uses in mind, the light box by Gus is a simple, yet brilliant idea for creating a warm glow in any area.
