8am Minimalist Desk Lamp

8am-lamp.jpg

Lighting simplified. This minimalist desk lamp strips the elements of a light fixture down to the bare necessities, the bulb and the wire carrying power to the bulb.

There is also no switch to clutter the design, simply touch the aluminum clamp and the light source fades on or off. In addition to the desk lamp, this idea has also been extended to a chandelier, floor and wall mounted lamp.

As this is still a concept, unveiled at Salone de Mobile 2007, no pricing or availability has yet been announced but you contact the designers directly here.

I'll reserve full judgement until I can see what kind of light it gives off, but the design is sexy.

Attractive, but I would be curious how badly the light would shine in your eyes since there is no shade.

Looks "Prouvish"

More inspiration for me to hack out my own version to be mounted on the wall.

reminds me of the lamps that designers clip on their drafting tables. The shade question is an interesting one.
