COIL LAMP

Coil reduces the iconic table lamp down to the absolute minimum of defining elements. A single electrical cord coils around what appears to be an empty volume, defining the iconic form of a table lamp and ultimately powering a single light bulb.

The entire lamp is created exclusively from a 100 foot extension cord that has been wrapped around a laser-cut clear acrylic form. This simple transformation elevates the status of the humble extension cord to the realm of domestic design.

+ Originally created for "Deceptive Design", an exhibition of conceptual furniture shown at the Chicago Cultural Center.

The first edition of Coil Lamp is available in 2 forms:

Handmade Coil Lamp: $150 'Handmade' Coil Lamps are limited editions that are hand-coiled by the designer and come ready to plug in and use. Buyers receive the laser-cut acrylic frames, bulb adaptor, 100' orange extension cord, and 1 CFL lightbulb.

DIY Coil Lamp Kit: $75 ‘D.I.Y’ Coil Lamp Kits allow the buyer to participate in the design process by having them wrap their own extension cord to complete the form. The kit includes the laser-cut acrylic frames, bulb adaptor, and illustrated assembly instructions. Buyers will need to purchase one 100 foot extension cord as well as one CFL lightbulb.

+ Coil Lamp is approximately 17" tall by 11" wide.

+ Please allow 2-4 weeks for production and delivery.
