Angler Lamp
By Martin Lim
Angler is a gimmicky yet fun lamp that yearns for user interaction. It forms a mutual relationship between user and product through the lamp switch, which undoubtedly looks like a shoelace, when tied up brings the lamp to life. The gimmicky nature of the lamp draws in the user much like how a Anglerfish draws in it's prey with it's esca (head light) with it's novel form and warm light.
The lamp gives any room a subtle yet warm bust of light while offering the user interaction through it's springy and bouncy material qualities and the head of the lamp which can also be used for warmth.
