Golden Bird Furniture

The Uccello Side Table & Lamp Creates an Emotional Connection

— February 28, 2012 — Art & Design
There is a whimsical, fairy tale-like quality about the Uccello Side Table & Lamp. Inspired by the novel 'Bluebird,' both the table and the light fixture take on a tree-like aesthetic that is pure and simple. The legs and stand act as the branches while the table top and lampshade are interpreted as the leaves. The "branches" extend beyond the table top and lampshade to provide a convenient perch for a beautiful golden bird to rest on.

The Uccello Side Table & Lamp was designed by South Korean design company Monocomplex. According to the designers, they "made an effort to deliver the most intuitive and emotional feelings to users." The little bird becomes a cute companion for the owners, creating a connection between object and human that will be hard to break.
