'Lamp Project' by Karen Yeung is an Epic Way to Illuminate an Interior

The 'Lamp Project' by Karen Yeung is a sculptural lighting installation that looks like a super-sized sculpture of giant matchsticks. It's quite a dramatic piece to illuminate any home so long as candles aren't around.

We've featured a number of innovative lighting options at Trend Hunter. Check out more shots of the 'Lamp Project' by Karen Yeung above, and keep clicking for some of my favorites.
