A Bright Idea

 

Cologne 2010: Swiss Designers Jörg Boner and Christian Deuber were named winners of the interior innovation and best item awards at imm Cologne 2010 last week for their concrete and metal floor lamps.

(Sorry, honey - I know it's almost Valentine's Day, but my heart has been stolen.)

LOVE love love these lamps. The lampshades are genius - don't you think???

More images as featured on Dezeen this morning:

 




On the heels of Brooke's post this morning on her fab blog Velvet & Linen, these shades speak to me of the gorgeous way she and her hubby incorporate feminine and masculine elements throughout their own home.
Thanks to Dezeen for providing an always inspiring and interesting source of all things design.

concrete and metal? that's really cool. the concrete one sort of defies logic, doesn't it?
