Modern Mailbox-Inspired Lamps

The 'You've Got Light' Lamp Looks Like a Retro Residential Maibox

— June 14, 2013 — Art & Design
The 'You've Got Light' lamp takes inspiration from the cliché 'You've Got Mail' saying. Designed to look like a nostalgic suburban family mail box, the 'You've Got Light' lamp is a modern take on a traditional desk lamp.

Made from sturdy white powder-coated gray steel and several bright LED lamps, this small lamp can really bright up a room. The 'You've Got Light' lamp shade is made from a carefully curved piece of steel that expertly directs the powerful LED lights softly downwards. With a minimalist and clutter-free design structure, this lamp would sit perfectly on an office desk or even on a hallway table. On the bottom of the lamp is a flat piece of steel that is convenient for holding cellphones, keys and small note pads.
