Lamps Inspired by Instruments From A Chemistry Lab

London- and Verona-based designers, Daniel Debiasi and Federico Sandri, are the founders of Something, a design partnership that recently completed a lamp for Penta. Inspired by the instruments you’d typically find in a chemistry lab, the duo created Labo out of borosilicate glass, the material that beakers and test tubes are made from.

Light bounces off of the curved surface of the shade highlighting the fact that it is indeed glass.
