Hanged man lamp: cool or cruel?

Apr 11, 2008 by FN's Chrissy Icamina

colgao.jpg Aren’t lamps supposed to radiate with light or connote something bright? Looking at this quirky lamp over here, though, for some reason it exudes something dark and dreary—so much so that its glow seems more like a glower.

This lamp, called the Colgao, is designed by Spanish design studio enPieza. The creative (or maybe even crazy) team is also responsible for the Bic Biro Chandelier, a—you guessed it—chandelier made out of 347 used Bic ballpens.

So, what’s the Colgao table lamp made of?

Anguish and anger or ingenuity and imagination? The handmade item is actually made from only two types of material: electric wire and non-corrosive iron.

How about you? What do you think of the Colgao lamp?
