The Lampslamp has a design that comprises functional, aesthetic and fun elements in one; however, one of its most playful qualities might be wrapped up in the features that are largely unusable. For one, this contemporary light fixture is made predominantly of silicone material, enabling you to squeeze, bend and twist it -- but would you ever attempt to manipulate it this way after it's been installed?
The pliable pendant lamp takes a lovely translucent pink to give it a jellyfish-like appearance. What enhances this visually is the repeated dotted detailing in three tiers around its interior. Can you guess what these are? Anna Strupinskaya and Alexey Ivashkevich's Lampslamp actually features old lightbulbs as part of its unique design. The burnt out halogen lamps create intriguing spots of shade and reflection when it's switched on.
