Derek’s Lamp
New York City
Date: 2024
Collaborator: Derek Gardner
Inspired by the iconic space-age Guzzini lamps from the 70s and elements of chemistry lab equipment, this lamp merges nostalgic design elements with modern functionality. Its centerpiece is an adjustable hand-blown glass orb suspended by a sleek metal fixture. The orb features dual glass layers—a translucent white interior and a warm orange exterior—emanating a welcoming glow from a hanging bulb inside.
