Espresso Lamps by Piers Mansfield-Scaddan
Piers Mansfield-Scaddan is launching a new range of furniture and table lamps at Design Indaba inspired by industrial fabrication techniques and craftsmanship. Showcasing several industrial processes, the range reflects Piers’ obsession with all things technological. The tongue in cheek Espresso Lamp series draws inspiration from stove top Italian Espresso pot, functioning as a quirky desk light which works either in a domestic setting or home office. A visually arresting minimal design parodies frilly lamps found in your grandmothers attic, yet is industrially fabricated from sheets of anodized aluminum. Espresso’s are available in candy apple colours from lilac, and turquoise to aubergine and more established finishes of golds and bronzes to black. The Espresso Lamp and is available in a wide range of colours and in 3 sizes, referred to as single, double and mini espressos!
