The Scooby-Doo Table Lamp may not be what people are expecting from such a name, but it does highlight the simple whimsical properties this design has. Instead of resembling a Great Dane or other similar mixed breeds, this lamp is incredibly modern and minimalist. The clean lines and basic lamp shade is not even something that would be found in Shaggy Rogers' apartment. Nevertheless, the Scooby-Doo Table Lamp would make a great household companion.
Created by Italian designer Giorgio Bonaguro for Brazilian manufacturer La Lampe, the Scooby-Doo Table Lamp contrasts rich materials with a basic design. The stand does have a quirky element, however, that is reminiscent of the pigeon pose in yoga. The red cord also adds character to the light fixture.
