I like the casual black humor, but this is ridiculous: Ji-youn Kim's Hangman Light looks like a voodoo doll with a light bulb head that is suspended from the ceiling and comes in three colors: white, light brown and black.
I don’t know any sane man that would put Ji-youn Kim's Hangman Light in his home, but i guess it has a certain appeal to your everyday serial killer. Anyway, if you want to see this design in stores, just hang in there and you might get lucky.
