Le Klint Joker Light

While this looks more like Batman’s style than the Joker’s, it has a strong modern presence that looks excellent over a dining table.

The Joker was created by Christian Ræder in 1970 where it won 1st prize at the Scandinavian Lighting fair. This light pendant simply assembled by hand, provides a beautiful light and acts as an exciting sculpture in the room, even when it is off. The Joker is available in either white on white or black on white.

Dimensions: 50cm x 50cm, height 25cm
Colors: White/White, Black/White

Double Stray light

Here’s a rather nice textured pendant to shed light in a corner or above a dining table.

Double Stray is a flexible white ceiling lamp inspired by the simplicity and translucence of Chinese paper lanterns. Packaged flat, the piece unfolds accordion-style to reveal an intricate moiré pattern. The name Double Stray is derived from the two overlapping line grids that serve as both the focal point of the lampshade’s visual style as well as the source of its structural integrity.

Tyvek with white hanging cord.
dia. 11.4″ x H 13.0″

Face to Face Light

This seems to be a floor sample piece, hence the price reduction, but man-oh-man is it a lovely light fixture (made of velcro!). It looks like this particular retailer won’t take additional orders, but you can email (export@almerich.com) or call (tel +34961343234) the manufacturer directly.

At a time when both designers and consumers are overwhelmed with complicated manufacturing techniques and advanced material technologies, Luis Eslava seeks to champion the straighforward through his Face to Face installations made of humble velcro. Since its invention in the 1940’s Velcro has been used for a variety of purposes but is usually hidden from view. Face to Face elevates velcro’s flexibility, transparency and tactility to create beautifully sculptured objects.

More-Light: SOUTH3rd

On my daily walks to work, I see the new graffiti from the night before, and then on my way home I see that has been painted over by a shop owner or City Beautification volunteer. One morning, I saw some young men painting graffiti on Hollywood boulevard, (with the marks and symbols that I’ve always acquainted with gang activity), and then on the way home I saw some people from City Beautification painting over it with a paint to match the background. It was sort of lovely to be witness to both the defacing/refacing processes.

I have always marveled at graffiti and the fact that no one has come up with a device for stopping it.

Anyway, that’s what I think of when I see this pendant lamp featuring a mural of Brooklyn graffiti.
