The Colgao


This morbid lamp was created by design studio Enpieza in Spain. The Colgao (”hung” in Spanish) is hanging from the top horizontal rod of the lamp. The lamp looks very simple except for the tasteless, hanging anthropomorphic figure. Either the designers were fresh out of ideas or they are into black humor.


The Light Drop


Created by Brazilian designer Rafael Morgan, the Light Drop takes decorative lighting options to a new level of creativity. This watery light features a tap oozing out of a big drop of lighted water. Another trait that adds into the mystery of this unique light is the way it controls the illumination. It is the tap that doubles up as the dimmer in this case. Just turn it around and you can control the effects.


Mannequim Lamps


Called At Your Command, these really cool lamps can be manipulated into different postures as they are jointed. By Daniel Loves Objects.


The Liquid Lamp


After a brief shot at being practical and ingenious, the Japanese are back to being weird again with this morbid and messy yet minimalist lamp from DCS Corp. Designed by Kouichi Okamoto, the Liquid Lamp is made of steel and comes equipped with a 25-watt bulb. The puddle of red stuff is actually the lamp’s stand, so from a distance it looks like the lamp is floating.


Darth Vader Lamp


Seriously, how cool is this lamp? You can order the lamp from Collectors Gallery for $39.95.
