Fabric need not be reserved for furnishings alone, for Lampa by Niebo.Design demonstrates how fetching it can look when applied to light fixtures. The handsomely quilted hanging light and the matching Kukka floor lamp make a whimsical pair fit to fill the room with warmth. Diverting light upwards and down instead of outwards, they establish an intimate mood through diffuse illumination.
A pattern of tiny stitched triangles from larger hexagonal shapes band together to complete a ring around the lightbulb. Three rows of these cozy cloth belts join together to create thick plushy lampshades which can be fixed to their standing or suspended frames by the tying them up with ribbons. Lampa by Niebo.Design look to be machine washable so that their crisp, colorful and geometric charms don't grow dull and dusty.
