Lighten up. We're always on the lookout for interesting lightingthere is so much out there and really very little that is appealing to us.
Design Within Reach has made an effort to expand their
lighting selection and they are including
Model 2097 30 by
Gino Sarfatti. We love this becuse it is simple and straightforward: a steel tube and arms support a basic structure of 30 small lightbulbs. The beauty lies in the individual lights' exposed cords that gracefully mimic the shape of a classic chandelier...
This would be a great DIYwe're sure some readers could do it for far less than the $1276 pricetag!
Inspired by the machines in the Beauty Parlors of the 1930s that used to give women's hair "permanents."
Ooh I want one! Victoria - that's cool I like it even more now! Kind of a compromise between white-walls-and-chrome-minimalism and chandelier baroque-ness. Maybe that's a bad thing tho... Also - $1276?! :O
I'm sorry, but there is nothing beautiful, nor graceful about a bunch of hanging cords.
