Hidden Night Lights
Brion Experimental's Mesa De Luz Lamp Keeps the Monsters at Bay
Argentinian-based design firm Brion Experimental’s Mesa de Luz lamp translates directly as night light. The top drawer of the lacquered wood nightstand pulls out to reveal a glowing, LED-illuminated acrylic box. The lamp is part of Brion’s ‘Empathy’ collection which aims to examine the perspective of others and as their website says "create a link of complicity and even solve unprecedented situations." This night light certainly does lay to rest any fears of monsters under the bed.
