# Coiled Art Lamps The Slange Lighting Object is Both Simple and Playful By Meghan Young | Published 2011-03-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slange-lighting-object References: [bookofjoe](http://www.bookofjoe.com/2011/03/slange-lighting-object-lamp.html) & [etsy](http://www.etsy.com/listing/65363091/slange-lighting-object-cool-lamp?ref=tre-4d7540a2f4f98eeff18827d1-3) I love how simply yet playful the Slange Lighting Object lamp is. This minimalist design with a quirky tweak features a unique base that happens to look like a random squiggle or doodle to me. Designed by furniture designer Patrick Kerti, the Slange Lighting Object lamp is made from a compound material that is stiff and yet flexible. This allows you to bend the base in a multitude of ways for both form and function reasons. The Slange Lighting Object is priced at 240 euros (about $340), and is available online via [Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/archflex-desk-lamp) seller ShowRaum from Berlin, Germany. Perfect for homes, offices and other spaces, the Slange Lighting Object lamp will surely add character instantly. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.7/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 4% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Lighting:** Opportunity for innovative lighting designs that combine simplicity and playfulness. - **Flexible Material:** Potential for materials that are both stiff and flexible, allowing for customizable and functional designs. - **Quirky Home Decor:** Growing market for home decor items that feature unique and eccentric designs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Furniture Design:** Innovative furniture designs that incorporate minimalist lighting concepts and flexible materials. - **Interior Design:** Opportunity for interior designers to incorporate quirky lighting objects in their projects. - **E-commerce:** Expanding online marketplaces for unique home decor items like the Slange Lighting Object. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Organically Shaped Shadow Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lamp.md) - [Space-Saving Desk Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacesaving-desk-lamp.md) - [Interactive Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangent-lamp.md) - [Bold Playful Lighting Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-lebow-table-lamp.md) - [Simplistically Complex 3D-Printed Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sopp-lamp.md) - [Suspended Halo Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lamplox-minimalist-floor-lamp.md) - [Pasta-Inspired Curvaceous Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neotenic-lamp.md) - [Sculptural Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp.md) - [Ultra-Flexible Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anywhereuse-lamp.md)
