The Mo Lamp is a statement decor piece. Part art sculpture, part [chandelier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blossom-chandelier), it hangs from the ceiling like a warped birdcage. But in place of chirping creatures, the Mo Lamp houses three fluorescent light tubes that dangle from different heights.

Stunningly conceived by French designer Constance Guisset for the Italian furniture manufacturer [Molteni & C](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/italian-embassy-london), the Mo Lamp is beautiful to behold. Far from quirky but completely original, it brings a sense of whimsy into homes. The Mo Lamp is a great addition for both eclectically designed interiors and minimalist living spaces. The white-on-white palette provides a cool contemporary touch that would bring character into any type of home.
