The lamps in my house

Really loved the lamps featured here. I'm jealous of the whole setup, including the Vitsoe shelving. Saving this for inspiration when I need to revamp my home setup. Thanks for sharing!

xnx

I have a $2.94 USB silicone lamp shaped like a duck. To each their own.

I couldn’t differentiate one of these designer lamps from an ikea lamp. They look almost the same.

I love iconic minimal lamps too. I never saw the Lampe de Bureau nor the Kismas Lamp 01, love them! You might like the Muuto Post.

Am I the only one who fantasized about the whole place more than the lamps?

The arrogance of people still inventing new lamps after the Ikea KRUX lamp is astounding

What a beautiful home. I love the office and desk setup specifically. The lamps are cool too.

One lamp featured was a "mini Tizio". I bought the full-size one many, many years ago. (E.g. uses a Halogen bulb.) This article prompted me to think... So I just Goolged it. My vintage Tizio is now selling for about $1,200. (Cannot remember what I spent, but very likely my <$150 filter kicked in when buying.) So if you like these lights, maybe consider the cost an investment. If after a few decades you may want to sell, and you might do well. Note: My Tizio is not for sale as it is a superb desk lamp.

All I can think about is the 20m it would take to walk around the house and turn all of them off every time I wanted to leave the house.

I enjoyed the article, but I got a real kick out of how the author formats the date into the URL

Love the pics. Moved into a place in the 90's. Insurance agent told me, easiest way to liven up a cheap apt was to get good lighting. He was right, but I was too lazy to shop much. Only found one lamp that I really like. It's an Ikea Torchère: kinda old now, just halogen, but I've always kept a spare "bulb" for it somewhere - replaced it every 10-20 years. I still like the weird pattern on the ceiling. :P

Unrelated aside, but: > Fun fact: “Akari” means light in Japanese, both as illumination and as lightness. Wow! I love it when two languages have matching homonyms. I always wonder "what does it mean ?". Like, in English "second" to mean the unit of time and the place after "first" feels like two distinct usages. But it's the same in Spanish ("segundo"), which points to a deeper connection (and isn't so unsurprising given the shared roots of the languages): the unit of time is called that because it's the second subdivision of an hour. The two usages of "light" in English are so distinct I'm quite surprised it's like this in the entirely unrelated Japanese language. Is this just a big coincidence, or does anyone know any deeper reasons here?

This is great. Lighting I think is the best thing to spend money on as it isn't exposed to wear and tear like furniture. In addition to these also a huge fan of Anglepoise desk lamps, Lotte lamps and Mantis sconces.

Remember a saying of 5 individual light sources in each room as a rule of interior design. Very wholesome read, made me smile and look at my own lamps. Brought me joy as Kondo would have said

I deeply regret not buying another suitcase to import a Tolomeo from Germany to the USA a year ago.
