The Design
About Spike Lampa
Spike lampa se joacă cu contraste. Ea reflectă cultura punk, dar pentru a calma starea de spirit scandinavă. Este o piesă voluminoasă, cu toate că lumina caldă este focalizată într-o mică zonă punctuoasă sub piesă. Lampa Spike are un aspect agresiv din cauza vârfurilor metalice îndreptate spre privitor. În același timp, există ceva calm în ceea ce privește netezimea suprafeței ceramice și lumina caldă. Lampa creează tensiune într-un interior. Ca un individ dintr-o subcultură.
