Office tasks require a different balance of light than most other areas of the home. Home office lighting has the dual purpose of creating a comfortable work environment, while providing illumination. A floor lamp and other lighting fixtures can influence your productivity, accuracy, and minimize fatigue and eye strain. A desk lamp is more comfortable in my opinion, I have one here .Designed by Benjamin Hubert the concrete desk lamp will e launched for design brand Decode London at 100% Design in London this week.

This is a very nice lamp, perfect for those interested in quality and comfort, and less in the design and other details. It’s a very simple-looking lamp. It has no details or ornaments and the shape is also very simple. It’s actually refreshing to see such a nice lamp. These days it’s harder to fins something simple and non-pretentious in terms of design and image. Sophisticated and impressive design can be found all over the place, so it’s a lot easier to find them. It’s very strange when you think about it.

So if you’re looking for a small, simple and practical desk lamp, this is the one for you. The only variation of this design is the color. The lamp is available in either white or grey, both neutral and quite tones, again simple and not at all pretentious.

London designer Benjamin Hubert has created a collection of clay pendant lamps for British design brand Viaduct. The lamps inner part is glazed in white that added a classy and elegant look to the product. These lamps can be placed anywhere at home. I find it perfect for huge house, and  night clubs. But giving the simple design, they would also look good in a bedroom, even in a kitchen, a living room and maybe in the office.

Still, they are not very appropriate for small homes, because of the long cord. It would look odd and out of place in a small room. The lamps are produced in a pottery studio in Wales and they are made using natural clay fro that region.  The fact that they are handmade is surprising, considering the neat and very elegant shape. This also means that each lamp is unique. It’s an impressive technique, very accurate and rewarding.

The combination of materials and textures is a little odd but the result is very beautiful.  The orange natural color of the clay is beautifully complemented by the glossy white interior. It’s a nice combination. There are basically two different shapes available for the lamps, but because they are handcrafted means that each one has its own characteristics and each one is unique. So if you like them, all you have to do is buy them. They are very versatile and would look good in any room.
