NIGHT OWL

Owls, forest mushrooms, and helmuts from a science fiction movie—these are just some of the impressions you might get from this table lamp. The work of Danish designer Nicholai Wiig Hansen for Lightyears, the Night Owl has a conical base that merges with an oval shade to form a unified, organic form with an almost humanoid appearance. The lamp’s asymmetric shade provides a calming, downward diffusion of light, and it works well on shelves, bedside tables, sideboards as well as on window sills.
