Wonderlamp is a project from [Studio Job](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orb-lamp1) that takes semi-normal everyday home objects and adds handblown glass to make them unusual. In one piece (there are seven), what looks like Aladdin's lamp (they didn't say *whose* everyday home objects they were going to use) is emitting a [large and seemingly growing white shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blow-lamp).

It doesn't take much imagination to think of a genie taking form from that handblown glass. Hopefully the genie doesn't sound like Robin Williams.
