The Bulbing Bankers
Lamp is an intricately
designed visual trick.
BY YAS MI N GAGNE
Made by Israeli designer Nir
Chehanowski, this whimsical
lamp creates an optical illusion
via a flat acrylic sheet that’s
been laser cut into an intricate,
curving pattern. When the dim-
mable LED light is turned on,
the glowing sheet looks three-
dimensional. Chehanowski
started his “bulbing” series of
fixtures five years ago, before get-
ting picked up by the MoMA De-
sign Store. ($170, store.moma.org)
