The 'Palmetto' lamp is a charmingly naturalistic illuminator designed with function and form in mind to enhance the aesthetic of a home or office space. The lamp is designed with a targeted illumination unit in the base that emits light upwards and diffuses it via its palm-like shade in the outer section. This paper shade has a naturalistic design with elements of paper craft and helps to further reinforce the organic form of the illuminator, despite the otherwise metallic construction.
The conceptual 'Palmetto' lamp is the design work of Patrick Hartog and is equipped with a dimmer switch to let users adjust the intensity of the illumination. The light is intended to provide ambient illumination that's perfect for a desktop or side table.
