Lighting has always been a key factor in defining the mood or tone of any space. Overhead and desk lighting are often considered staples in a home. This year, numerous brands honed in on this timeless object by adding colour, character, and various design elements. In addition to setting the mood, these lamps can easily become a statement accessory– even in minimalist spaces. By tweaking their shape, colour options, and modalities Sompex offered a variety of options. Many of the emerging like Japanese designer Atsushi Shindo and Indian designer Priyam Doshi of ‘Name, Place, Animal, Thing’ were looking at ways to create conversations through form in their designs.
