Know what’s hilarious? A giraffe. Spots, silly animal, big tongue, long neck. Yeah, sounds like an awesome creature to me. Why not make a lamp that pokes fun at a giraffe all while paying equal tribute? Wait, where’d his head go? I don’t know but all of a sudden I can insert a fluorescent bulb into a socket. Let there ...

The Lamp That Adjusts To Your Surroundings
Every now and then there comes a lamp that makes me tingle. I’m not referring to the Smoon Ombrella or the Centipede Lamp, though those two are weird in their own right. Designer Chris Natt was fed up with varying levels of light in his work environment, so he made this lamp, the Stimuli 3.0, that will keep the light ...
Read More »I Have A Really Small Lamp
Sometimes size doesn’t matter. But we all know that only men lacking in the trouser snake department say that. For example, don’t buy a Ferrari because you have a tiny penis. Sure, you’ll get a date out of it but, once you drop your pants, that girl will be singing to the whole town about what you aren’t packing. Why ...
Read More »A Lamp That Literally Sucks
No, really. This sculpture really does suck. It’s made from a shit-ton of colorful drinking straws and you can make your own if you find yourself inclined to do so. It’s not just a sculpture, though. It’s also a lamp! Yes, light up your room and take a hit. Let the grooves flow, then, snap out of it and realize ...

Centipedes are fucking gross. They squirm around on the floor and scare the shit out of chicks. I’d say a centipede is good for nothing except shitty ’80s video games but I’d be wrong. Seems there is a freaky centipede-inspired lamp you can own for $2600. I can’t tell how big the actual lamp is because the photo has nothing ...

Not much is known about this red lamp that’s shaped like a huge cupcake diamond. It’s produced by IARF (Interior Adventures For Real) who I assume has quite a sense of humor. For real. Link (via)

Here’s a great way to eavesdrop on an unknowing sap’s conversation. Objects in Flux’s Scott Mitchell has turned a vintage lamp into a parabolic microphone for recording. It’s got volume control and a headphone socket mounted in the lamps base. This way, no one other than the headphone wearer gets to hear the goods. And by goods I mean the ...

Designer Adrien Rovero got confused when coming up with the Candlelight electric light. Half romantic candlelight dinner, half-end-table study lamp. You’ll either impress your date for the evening or confuse her. It’s a simple decision: light the candle or flick the switch? Or you could even light ’em both up simultaneously. After dropping $150 on this dual light source, you’ll ...
Read More »Cassette Tape Lamp Won’t Overdub
Broke? Need a lamp? Stuck in 1988? Grab those B-52s cassette tapes you left in your parent’s attic and some glue baby, ’cause we’re makin’ a lamp! The team at Transparent House glued a bunch of tapes together and shoved a light bulb in there, creating a unique-looking lamp that also sends out a fractal pattern on the walls around ...
Read More »Hector Dome Lamp = Classic
My father still owns an 17-year-old desk lamp from IKEA that closely resembles the Hector Dome lamp from Graham & Green. The ‘Dome keeps your work area lit evenly with just the right amount of light. And it looks good while doing it too. Critics would argue the basic look of this lamp but I call it classic. Used car ...
