Masterfully crafted using a steel frame enveloped in semi-transparent spray resin, the Phantom Table Lamp stands as an innovative, single-piece construction in which the shade and body merge seamlessly. Echoing the distinctive form of the Phantom Lamp, inspired by classic chandeliers and architectural columns, the table lamp commands attention with a presence that feels both sculptural and ethereal.
Through its translucent skin, the Phantom Lamp radiates a beautifully soft, diffused glow. Perfectly-sized for desks, side tables, or shelves, the lamp’s light, airy presence and dimmable function invite you to shape the ambience in any space.
Simon Legald studies design at the The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and will graduate in the Summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products.
“Honesty is what makes a product understandable, and is what describes functionality of the products. If you understand the product, it doesn’t need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological- and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects, and makes them trustworthy. In my designs I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression.”
