A Statement Lamp Can Enliven Dark Nooks in Need of a Bright Spot
One of these six light fixtures will do the trick.
Lighting, according to guitar maker-turned-furniture maker Nicholas Bijan Pourfard, “is one of the most unrestricted things you can design.” That might explain the huge variety of options on the market. Materials can range from 3D-printed plant polymers to corrugated steel or black granite.
The prevailing trend at the moment is to do away with shades altogether and use form to make a statement. Some lamps project their beams in perfect, geometrically crisp circles; others might bounce the light off a brass plate.
