Cloud Lamp

No one says every cloud has a plywood lining, but maybe they should. Forget raindrops falling on your head and imagine points of light breaking through soft Styrofoam and birch plywood. Inside the Styrofoam Cloud Lamp’s expansive curved form a single lightbulb is attached with a dowel, which conserves energy. How fitting that an object with natural beauty is made with 100 percent recycled materials.

Atlanta-based designer Joe Manus of Shiner International puts as much thought and innovation into his designs as we put into the earth. Now that’s an illuminating idea.
