For those of you who want to embrace the [minimalist, modern lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-lighting-design) without necessarily compromising your more classic and even traditional tastes, I suggest you take a good look at the Can Can lamp. It incorporates the best of both worlds through its rather unusual design.

Created by Marcel Wanders for Flos, the Can Can lamp has a sleek and simple exterior that is very contemporary. As soon as you glance its underside, however, you will immediately see the [intricate floral diffuser](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bloome) that gives this [pendant lighting fixture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kala-lamp) an intriguing and almost baroque feel.

The Can Can lamp emits a soft, warm glow thanks to this stunning diffuser. Interestingly enough, it also comes in a variety of colors including red and purple.
