Lighting Genius: Lindsey Adelman
Ever since reading last Sunday's NY Times Style Magazine feature on lighting designer Lindsey Adelman, I can't seem to get enough of her work. With intricate details made from metal, glass and custom bulbs these lighting fixtures take on shapes that resonate as nature's treasures. Take a look at a few of my favorite designs:
Jonas Lonborg's Pinecone Inspired Lights
I first caught a glimpse of Jonas Lonborg's pinecone lights on the D-Pages blog. I was struck with their shape, size and detail. Seeing a pinecone interpreted as a chandelier confirms just how intricate this seed pod really is. To see more prototypes click here.
Badminton Birdie Lights
Check out these amazing lights my husband and I stumbled upon in a Paris window display at Gambs (an amazing store I'll tell you more about tomorrow}. Still in their prototype stage, these feathered lights take on the form of badminton birdies. Strung among a series of branches I found them to be both delicate and whimsical. The feather and branch ends are magnetic so that their placement can be adjusted to your specific liking and need. Take a look:
Light Love: 4 Pendant Lights
I love these 4 pendant lights. While they are alike in some ways, their shape, finish and style are quite different from one another. Take a look and see what I mean.
Above are Benjamin Hubert 's Treis and Spinning pendant collections. His spinning lamp line is deliberately shaped and lacquered to render the lamps shiny and reflective. The Treis lights take on a freer form with a smoother matte look.
DWR's onion pendant is made of strips of bent metal giving the light a shinny smooth finish. The layered, hooped pieces of wood veneer on Bang Design's suspension light add texture to the organic shape.
Which one do you like?
