Ferrucio Laviani’s dramatic tubular lighting fixtures are truly a sight to behold. The Italian designer has created these beautifully simple tubes of PMMA (acrylic) which contain a bright incandescent light source at the top.

Toobe Floor Lamps

These Toobe lamps can be ordered in either clear, or imbued with a splash of primary color. The unique design provides ambient and directed light as well as sculptural appeal when turned off.

Toobe Table Lamps

Lumens.com offers these lamps in both a floor standing version ($606 USD) or a smaller, tabletop variant ($275 USD.) Colors include blue, green, red, orange and crystal.
