- Summary
- "Iconic, exclusive, radiant: the finest of modern lamp design. Lamps are much more than a source of light, and they come in an almost infinite number of forms. Whether they are chandeliers, pendant lights, or table lamps, sculptural or minimalist in design - they are exclusive decorative elements during the day that conjure up a very special atmosphere at night. Various iconic examples are shown in this book, as well as bold experiments with forms and materials. Renowned designers such as Michael Anastassiades and Lucie Koldova reveal their sources of inspiration and personal favorites, and legendary manufacturers and designers such as Louis Poulsen. Alvar Aalto, and Vitra are presented in portraits. An illuminating collection of 500 extraordinary pieces."--Back cover.
