Dual-Purpose Camera-Like Lamps

The Nostalgian Floor Lamp Clock by Hoyeon Shin is Industrial

— August 10, 2022 — Art & Design
The Nostalgian Floor Lamp Clock has been designed by Hoyeon Shin as a functional piece of decor for the modern home to provide a dual-purpose experience for inhabitants to appreciate.

The lamp is characterized by its camera-like form that provides warm illumination from the lens-inspired section in the front. This area is also paired with a series of clock hands to cast a slight shadow and provide onlookers with a way to easily keep time. The industrial unit has a freestanding design to function well off to the side in a space or as a focal point, depending on preferences.

The Nostalgian Floor Lamp Clock was designed by Shin with inspiration from two artists including Olafur Eliasson (The Weather Project) and Michael Schlegel (Iceland).
