Northern Oslo Wood

Norwegian Northern has truly had a breakthrough in 2019. The philosophy of recreating Norwegian nature in the most beautiful way, has resonated with consumers and with their Oslo Wood lamp , they have created a simple piece of design that is unique in more than one way.

The mission with the shade was to imitate the beams of light that breaks through the treetops in the forest. Therefore, Northern chose to make the shade of thin textile, so the light would shine through the screen and give character to the design.

The upwards-facing shade is a bold choice, but at the same time it is the selling point of this lamp. Floor lamps with upwards-facing light, has its benefits when you want a diffused, ambient light. Placing the screen on a simple tripod helps the direction and inclination of the shade to stand out as the center of the design.

Foscarini Caboche

This other pendant is quite a contrast to the minimalistic and timeless Caravaggio. Here we will be looking to Italy, where Foscarini has created one of their most popular pendants – The Caboche .

The lamp was designed by Patricia Urquiola and Eliana Gerotto and the original idea stems from a wristband that Urquiola was wearing one day at Foscarini.

The design is a beautiful circle of light that spreads in little bubbles made from polycarbonate. This structure makes the light spread in many different ways, giving the bubbles a shiny and playful expression.

The lamp comes in gold and transparent. On the gold model , you will get an amber-looking design when turned on, making the lamp stand out whilst giving off a pleasant and warm light in the room. The transparent model makes the design a bit more discrete and might be better suited for minimalistic and neutral interiors.

Either way, you get world-class, Italian craftsmanship and an iconic design that will impress any design lover.
