Double Duty Lighting

The Tafelstukken Cappellini Series Provides Light and Storage Space

— August 12, 2011 — Art & Design
The Tafelstukken Cappellini lighting collection has an industrial look that will surely add character to any home. Quirky and full of personality, they actually look like prime Pixar characters, if you ask me. Yet in addition to their adorable hunched frames, the Tafelstukken Cappellini table lamps are doubly useful.

Created by Netherlands-based designers Daphna Isaacs and Laurens Manders, the Tafelstukken Cappellini lighting collection also provides convenient storage spaces below each bulb and shade. Shaped like a fruit bowl or platter, these storage spaces are roomy enough to hold just about anything. Considering how versatile each lamp in the Tafelstukken Cappellini collection looks, this is definitely a good thing. It can be placed anywhere from a tool room to a kitchen.
