The Task Lamp by Laura Fernandez is a barebones light fixture inspired by a painter's easel. Although it appears to only subtly channel this piece of artistic equipment, the overall concept is there. Made out of wood, the desk light has a Y-shaped head that cradles the lampshade and bulb as well as a mirrored base that holds it steady.
Thanks to this unique frame, the Task Lamp by Laura Fernandez does not require any additional screws or adhesives. A minimal accent for any office space, it is nevertheless full of personality and character. The on and off switch is even embedded in the cord, which is blue for a pop of color, allowing the simplicity of its look extend to its function.
