Laundry appliances are pricey to replace, but before you begin mourning the loss of your machine, check out the To Martins REWASHLAMP to see what the afterlife holds for your clothes-cleaning basin.
The rad recycled lamps are a project of the Portuguese designer's that finds a funky use for the inner barrels of conked-out washing machines. Martins models the base of the polished pieces to look like a camera-ready tripod and tops it off with a snazzy shade that wraps around the spare machine parts. The unique bulb-covers are decorated with a variety of embellishments, from ping-pong balls and measuring tape to AstroTurf and wine corks, but still manage to look like fashionable furnishings.
Flick on a To Martins REWASHLAMP and flood your space with re-purposed style.
