Christian Vivanco's 'Rem Lamp' is Pedal-Driven
Jordy E — August 2, 2012 — Art & Design
The 'Rem Lamp' is a bicycle lovers dream. Designed by creative artist Christian Vivanco, the products overall appearance is modeled after classic two-wheelers.
Cycle styles have been at the heart of numerous contemporary at-home decor projects. While the general look of the vehicles have become the center of mug and vase collections, few architects have made use of the vehicle's apparatus. Vivanco has done just this here.
The coils and handlebars featured at the top of the Rem Lamp are used to control the fixture in a way that mimics cycling technology. A simple grip of the bars will turn the light on and off, just as they control the stop and go nature of on and off course rides.
