The Self Table Lamp is a clear example of following the minimalist movement while still providing a piece of home decor that is dynamic and far from boring. Although simple designs offer a clean aesthetic that declutters spaces for a contemporary feel, it can often feel too barren and cold. The Self Table Lamp is the opposite of that. Instead, it is quirky, warm and full of character.
Created by Spanish designer Luis Eslava for Almerich, the Self Table Lamp takes on a zigzagging shape that makes it look like it is slithering away from the user (or maybe slithering towards). Made out of a single brass tube, it has been folded and moulded to create its unique and playful shape. The Self Table Lamp is available in white, red, black, blue and beige.
