Spoon Lamp | Clive Roddy

If we use the definition that any device that produces light, whether electronically or naturally, can be considered a lamp than obviously this design qualifies. What’s interesting about this lamp, versus the many others in existence, is what happens to the light. Here form plays an important part.

The curvature of the 115 stainless steel desert spoons that make up the shade helps to direct the light allow it to scatter out of the holes, casting an interesting shadow. Pinecones inspired the shape as the spoons are arranged in a spiral traveling upwards. Depending upon how far the head of the spoon is bent further helps construct the desired shape. Finally, sticking with the nature theme, the tripod base is made out of oak, which could be seen as the tree or branch the pinecone sitting atop of it came from.
