Yuval Tal of Israel worked primarily with what is best described as a floor lamp. Metal bases rise up into stainless steel shafts that appear to penetrate the various laminated wood components that make up a magazine rack, a small bookshelf and a bedside table with a single drawer. The Lamp + Collection presents quite quirky but undoubtedly practical domestic solutions. With these, fewer separate pieces are needed to furnish the various rooms in your home.
