This may look like some sort of funky 2-way speaker perched on a tall stand, but it’s actually a floor lamp.

Lightspeaker by LYX

The Lightspeaker Lamp from Sweden’s LYX Furniture and Light features a “tweeter” and “woofer” which reflect light instead of sound. There’s even a little “volume” knob which is actually a dimmer for the lamp. I also dig the coiled power cable that more like a telephone cord than a source of electricity.

Designer Michael Malmborg’s unique lighting fixture produces a soft white glow, since most of the light is reflected back into the frosted acrylic “acoustic” chamber.
