Are your lights catching the train to ugly town?

Are your lights in need of a little beautification? I know ours are. We live in a rental property where, unfortunately, the owner thought it was a good idea to install oyster light/fan combos. Bleh. So, although these lights are not for us ... yet, I think they are super cool and definitely within budget!




Midsummer Light designed by Tord Boontje.

Full of floaty goodness this pendant lamp is feather light and diffuses a soft warm glow through the room. Could absolutely be used as a wedding table centrepiece suspended over guests tables. So original and elegant





Future Flora Lamp also designed by Tord Boontje, (four years later)

Still light and floaty but with a sci fi edge. If Princess Leia had a bedroom I think she'd run with this pendant lamp.





Pig Lamp designed by Ariel Rojo
.
No need to hire an electrician for this one. This super cute, super portable, super pro environment pig lamp is a light with a message. The pig shape is a reference to saving, whilst the cool to touch energy efficient bulb is, actually, saving (energy) oink oink!!.

All lights under $100 (yes, really!) and available here
