Sven Light

Solid lamp shades look dramatic, but in many rooms, the way that they limit light can be a big drawback. The Sven Light seems to have taken that into its design, which seems to have had a strip removed from the shade. The lamp is made from spun aluminum and has 24 LEDs shining down and 16 LEDs shining up. Currently, they are available in black and white, but a red version is due for release within a few months. Price: $475.
