Yo-Yo Lamps by Almerich

01.06.12

Spanish lighting company Almerich puts the fun in functional with their Yo-Yo lamps that resemble (you guessed it) a child’s yo-yo. Available as a floor or hanging lamp, the red fabric-covered cable is close to 33 feet and rolls up between the two diffusers just like the string of a yo-yo.

Cool lamp but yo-yos aren’t just for children. Have a look at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3TiPUuSPFNw

Hey guys –

If there’s no link directing you to a website where you can buy one of these items, does that just mean it’s not avaialble for purcahse anywhere at this point? I’m fairly new to the website and was curious, really some amazing designs here

Thanks for the input

Nice lamp, but doesn’t it look exactly like the (p)lay lamp by Alt Lucialternative, designed in 2007 by studiodsgn?
