The 'IKEA plus Tertial' Light is Ornately Carved

— May 25, 2010 — Art & Design
I never thought that a typical desk lamp could look so epic, yet that is exactly the word I wold use to describe the 'IKEA plus Tertial' light. Featuring carvings of mythical battles between tigers and dragons, it is a sculpture masterpiece like no other.

Created by Taiwanese designer Pili Wu in collaboration with craft artist Jian-An Su, the 'IKEA plus Tertial' desk light could probably inspire other artistic endeavors. The 3D carvings are, obviously, considerably dramatic when back-lit by the lamp.
