“Designers and lighting companies have been busy coming up with new ways to hold a light bulb and project light, and winter is a great time to explore their latest solutions.
Some are inspired by the skies overhead. Others by style eras, from Deco to disco. Still others are working with interesting materials around which to build a lamp.

The Tidal fixture perches sculpted amoeba-like glass pieces on hand-forged brass stems to create an organic canopy.
