Fixtures such as mushrooms, Duosphere of Notes Design Studio

Am inspired by the fungi that grow in small groups around the trees in Scandinavian forests, the lamps that are part of Duosphere Family, designed and built by Design Lab Notes, the brand of product design of Swedish Notes Design Studio.

As the name implies, the lamps are composed of two spheres, the wood base, the coprilume frosted glass. The smaller specimens are made with its low-power light globes that are grafted on the balls of wood, while the older ones are made of hand-blown glass. In both cases it is designed to save energy “in order not to overload our beloved nature.”
