# L-Shaped Lumber Illuminators The Gorgeous Fling Lamp Gets it Right with a Right-Angled Design By Amelia Roblin | Published 2014-02-24 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fling-lamp References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2014/02/24/l-is-for-light/) & [kristinagernes](http://www.kristinagernes.com) You don't need frills to make an object attractive, and this is demonstrated by the beauty in the minimalism of the Fling Lamp. Comprising a pair of perpendicular wooden components, the illuminator mounts against the wall with one and the other points directly out. Kristina Källström-Gernes' crisp and contemporary wall lamp takes a clean and rigid body of either metal or wood. Embedded LED lights are concealed in the hood of the Fling Lamp, directed downwards to provide bright rays below and to serve as a diffuse source throughout the room. Not completely stark, the light fixture does feature a strip of timber veneer with an elegant wood grain pattern. This beautifully absorbs the beams from above. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.5/10 - Popularity: 21% | Activity: 16% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Minimalist Lighting:** Create lighting fixtures with a sleek and minimal design for a modern and sophisticated look. - **Angled Illuminators:** Incorporate right angles in lighting fixtures to add visual interest and unique design elements. - **LED Lighting:** Develop LED lighting solutions for their energy-efficiency and flexibility in design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Use minimalist lighting trends to create modern and chic interior spaces. - **Architecture:** Incorporate right angle lighting fixtures into the design of buildings to add visual interest and unique design elements. - **Lighting Manufacturing:** Develop energy-efficient and unique LED lighting fixtures for indoor and outdoor spaces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp.md) - [Folded Timber Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flatpack-timber-lamp.md) - [Angular Layered Wood Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riffle-led-lamps.md) - [Minimal Aesthetic Light Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flat-light.md) - [Geometric-Shaped Wall Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impulse-wall-light.md) - [Twisting Timber Lampshade Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twisted-lasercut-wooden-lampshade.md) - [Wall-Mounted Ambient Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-varmblixt-collection.md) - [Foldable Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-folding-lamp.md) - [Flexible Workstation Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archflex-desk-lamp.md)
