Horse Lamp.



I can always count on Moooi to deliver some of the most wild, whimsical and unusual twists on the expected. This is the Horse Lamp from Moooi. This piece would bring sharp attention to the interior design of a room. I would actually love to see the reaction of an individual encountering such a lamp in a contemporary loft or an art collector's home. This is not your everyday piece and I certainly do not have one on order for one of my next design projects. But it is fun, fun, fun. Sometimes an outrageous lamp, such as a life size horse is not only enough to spark conversation, but it may encourage some jaw-dropping responses.

According to Moooi, "The Horse lamp by Front is faithful to the true dimensions of the animal bringing a touch of nature in fairytale style and genuine madness. By rejecting abstraction and taking inspiration from a living creature it delivers a powerful emotive content that never fails to elicit a strong response from onlookers. Who wouldn't want a horse lamp to light up their home? Furniture to fall in love with at first sight or hate forever."
