Description
Equal parts lighting and architectural experiment, this brutalist wall lamp channels the spirit of an underground club or a Soviet-era design school. The triangular body bristles with oxidized copper pipes like some kind of industrial porcupine, while the backplate catches and scatters the light from within. Is it a lamp? A sculpture? Does it even matter?
