Bright minds make good lamps

March 27th, 2008 by Vanessa Ruiz

Anatomy meets interior design with these lamps designed by Alexander Lervick.

MYBrain by Alexander Lervik

A replica of the designer’s brain, originated from an MR scan at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm. The image was processed through a 3D-printer, and became this unusual lamp shade design. Yes, it is bright.

The foot of this unparallelled lamp design is a silver colored replica of a human backbone. Made out of a 3D-printer, Spine casts shadows and reflections as the light falls down on the backbone.

Face by Alexander Lervick

A 3D-generated face is built into a wall. But with LED light, placed behind the face, it gives the illusion of coming out of the wall. Boo!

Love the spine lamp.
