This light is perhaps the most elegant lamp made of thermoplastic, or Plexiglass. In 2005 its transparent version made a splash in design circles, and in 2009 the warm, rich piece in yellow is a coveted object. The bulb is halogen, and sheds diffused light through the spheres.
Available at Domus Design Collection in New York and Los Angeles, and The Future Perfect in Brooklyn.
