Deconstructed Table Light Lamps

The 'Galv_' Lamp Features Bent Sheet Metal and a Bare Edison Bulb

— November 24, 2016 — Art & Design
A shift towards minimalism in design has created a number of items being created by designers that take the concept to a whole new level, as seen with the 'Galv_' table light lamp.

Designed by Carlos Manuel Gouveia Borges, the 'Galv_' lamp consists of a bent piece of sheet metal that has been shaped into a somewhat abstract shape. This is paired with an Edison-style bulb that is put on display at the top-front of the lamp to create a warm lighting that is in juxtaposition to the metal base below.

The 'Galv_' table light lamp features a cork-covered socket to add additional texture and variety, which adds to the overall aesthetic to make the lamp an exercise in retro/modern futurism.
Trend Themes
1. Minimalist Lighting Designs - There is an opportunity to create more lighting designs that focus on minimalism and simplicity.
2. Integration of Retro and Modern Design Elements in Lighting - There is potential to explore the combination of retro and modern design elements in lighting design to create unique and unexpected pieces.
3. Use of Unconventional Materials in Lighting Design - There is potential for designers to experiment with unconventional materials in lighting design, such as sheet metal, to create unique and visually striking pieces.
Industry Implications
1. Lighting Design - Lighting designers can search for ways to incorporate unconventional materials and unique design elements to create eye-catching pieces.
2. Home Decor - The minimalist and unique design of the 'Galv_' lamp could inspire designers to create similar pieces that fit into modern home decor trends.
3. Industrial Design - The use of sheet metal in the 'Galv_' lamp presents an opportunity for industrial designers to experiment with unconventional materials and techniques.
