Something I have noticed lately is the that people (mostly designers) tend to detach from standard shapes in designing something. The more unusual your creation looks, the greater interest it will raise. Anyway, it seams that designers take their ideas basically from nature, or maybe the human mind tends to compare everything it sees to something it already knows?! Quite a dilemma!
The same thing with this truly beautiful lamp designed by Ira Rozhavsky (unknown to me designer)! The same thing, because people say it resembles an amoeba, whereas I see a slug :)!
Thing number 1 I like about this gadget. I must admit, what I like the most about this piece is the fact that a great idea is put into life using truly cheap materials. The lamp is actually made of broken tempered glass coated with silicone. Simple and extremely smart! The effect of shattered lights is obtained with the help of white LEDs lined along the lamp's edge.
Thing number 2 I like about this gadget. Its silicone-glass construction gives it elasticity. This means you can write yourself a designer patent and give your lamp whatever shape you want. Bending and folding it you'll notice that different lighting effects can be performed. The shattered glass makes it possible to create original reflections. So you may get different lightening for your room every single day. (The rhetorical question is: would you like slugs like these all around your house? :)) - Just the matter of taste!
Thing number 3 I like about this gadget. Again, the great thing about this lamp is that even if half a world will purchase it, you'll still have an unique one because you bent it differently! And you may bend it differently every day!
