You can all always be asked give me some ideas on interior design and dear I say this is why I write these posts.

1 Maserati Lamps

via Design Boom

People might start believing that motor companies are secretly sponsoring this blog judging by the concept  motorcycle post i did. (link)

Maserati lamps are too sweet I like the atmosphere they create, well branding a lampshade is also a good idea.

2) Nymph Lamp

Via WebUrbanist-

This Caterpillar look works superbly.I am a fan this marriage between sculpture and light.

3)Gento Lamp

I love this because it is so fractal and it is inspired by the sun, I love it fractal nature well this is the best example of a sun lamp out there.

4)Ostrich Lamp

via Halden Martin

This was designed by Halde Martin, it is such a simple idea, applying feathers to light and it looks angelic.

5) Oyule Lamps

This is a very great idea, I love the way Sergio Silva contrasts new technology with old.  I remember the old oil lamps and he pays such a tribute to them and I wonder where he got the double light idea. As a contemporary interior design idea it works very well.

6) Milk Bottle

via Droog

I like the way he painted the glass white to drive home that it is a milk bottle, he could have easily have left it transparent, Why did i not think of that ?

7)  Dress lamp

Marc Pascal

Just showing appreciation for the female figure, there is a blog with all the dresses and the light design they inspired.

Lazy Reading Lamp

It does a job I am not sure I will have this rubber chair in my house but does a job, and why can a lamp not be made of flexible material? This is a great addition to the reading lamp portfolio.

9) Face lamp

This is inserted into the wall and has the effect of an illusion that the face is coming out of the wall.

10) T1000 – Backbone Lamp

source

This would be a very good present for someone lacking courage.

11) Lamp Momento

This is straight out of Japan by Hiroshi Yoneya and Yumi Masuko , I love the contrast between the opaque top and the transparent numbers when you go down.

12)Lamp JePapier

source This paper based lamp makes us question our beliefs about paper and it limitations, this fold up lamp is great.

13) Rubik Light

I am loving this Rubik’s cube lamp, I see a lot of material being inspired by Rubick’s cube these days.

14) Primitive Lamp

This such a radical concept I love the way it fits in with the furniture.  If you are going to buy this sort of lamp you will need the other furnishings to complement it.

15) The Blow Table Lamp

This is a design by Studio Italia , what is amazing is that it looks so good, it has a machismo about it.

16) Reading Lamp

This lamp as a bookshelf, It is made from the Netherlands.

17) Book Lights

This is a very clever idea to have lights hidden in a hard cover book.

18) Levitating lamp

Source

A copy called Creatlev has apparently discover how to make this lamp levitate and they are not telling the world how this works, this should be applied to other objects.

19) Penta Light

This is one of the most sweeping design concepts, the grand shape of the design creates a great filter for the lights, it has an aerodynamic in it feel.

20) Kwan Ho Lee

Kwang Ho lee specialises in making these lamps out of wire, he weaves them and they are spaghetti like.

21) DesignItalia Lamps

This is a beautiful pair of lamps as you can expect from the Italians there is a lot of sheen around, I am a fan of italian interior design or even the whole Italian design scene.

22) Clothes Hanger Light

We have seen people without wardrobes hanging clothes on walls before, in a way this redeems the practise.  Believe it or not it costs $249 in shops.

23) Solar Lamp

This lamp is very well designed for a green product and it can be moved outdoors to catch the sun rays.

24)Mushroom Lamp

Via Designboom

Mushroom, I do not know why he choose to make the other side black, I love the concept of it lying on the side, it makes a beautiful desk lamp.

25) Brain Lamp

This brings to mind the concept of being enlightened, this a great design by Alexandra Lervik

26) Flee From The Light

In a way it is nightmarish, that is why it is called flee from the light.

27) Twisted Lamp

via Coolest Gadgets

I could have thought of that , sure we have seen cubes before, but where he has palced the is clever.

28) Asteroid Lamp

This is a very spectacular yet simple shape, It has twenty four facets but different designs, It was created by Koray Ozgen

29) Zipper Lamp

Sometimes you wonder when concepts truly crystalised in the mind of designers.  It is play on curtains and how we can choose to have lights and control the amount we allow in and out.

30) Torn Lamp

image Freshome

This is a design by Bill May,these light are soothing,   I love where they a placed in a room it is very original to put them round  and in the middle.I wonder why some of the lamps are not mass produced, but you would not want to see this in every home.

31) Ribbon Lamp

Remember the Ribbon chair, the contrast it that this lamp is very busy rather than minimal.

31) Routa Light

via Behance

I can see why it is called a routa but I like the triangular shape.  This a very innovative design

32) Neo- Baroque Chandelier

via Atelier Abigail Ahen

Chandeliers are grandiose but this one manages to stay arty and beautiful as well.

Stay tuned for a series on lamps. I have a feeling that this is just a beginning of a beautiful series.

Can you believe we did not feature a lava lamp?
