Switzerland-based Belux presents the new Arba lamp design by Matteo Thun and Antonio Rodriguez. While modern design is always striking, this lamp shares a vague resemblance with a craft project I once made at summer camp...
Just kidding. I never went to summer camp.
The sweet treat inspired design of the Arba floorlamp works here. It’s modern, simple yet intricate... and the red cable extending from the lamp adds a purposeful touch of haphazardness.
But buyer beware, this modern design may cause unexpected trips to the freezer.
