When is a paperclip not a paperclip? When it’s a LED lamp by Teague, of course. As the ubiquitous paperclip lends itself to being picked up and bent, the designers of this lamp, Ben Collette and David Wykes, applied the same tactile approach to the structure of the lamp. See the lamp flat on a table, why not bend it into shape? Transformation after the jump. UPDATE: The Paperclip Lamp is a prototype. Teague is currently seeking manufacturing partners. Judging from the email and comments, there's a ready market for Paperclip...
Lovely tubular design... I don't know why it reminds me of the Mike Oldfield album : Tubular Bells !
Wow! This is awesome. Where can I get one?
That's awesome! I want one now. LOL
Nicely Done!
You can actually feel the usage of the design in just looking at the photos. Brilliant!
btw: any relation to the design firm of Walter Dorwin Teague?
This is brilliant! It's relationship to actual office work is fantastic. Simple and beautiful.
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G, I want one!!!
