While the name of the People Lamp gives it a lot of personality right off the bat, the look of it is a little more ambiguous. At least, only when considered in tangent with its name. On its own, the People Lamp will bring to mind one thing and one thing only: a wine glass. That is because it rests on the stem of such a dining staple.

Designed by Pedro Mendes for SOWHAT? PPP, the People Lamp combines an [iconic incandescent light bulb](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-glow-light) with the [stem of a wine glass](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuloa) for a cheerful creation that would brighten up anyone's home. The use of [colorful plastic parts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-lamp) gives each People Lamp a bit of a quirky touch.
