Tonerico is a Tokyo based collective of designers with a focus on [austere interior design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-delta-lamp), but the work that really turns my crank isn't their store designs. It's this [lamp produced by Cassina](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/takeout-lamp). It's not unlike a work I blogged about several weeks ago by Alison Berger where the [light reveals letters or numbers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lamp). Alisons piece is pretty personal and narrative, but this piece is more accessible in its price as well as its generic quality.
