Dog lamp by Charles Kalpakian

By Glen Taylor - November 11, 2008

in Object Culture

Inspired by graffiti, nature, sculpture, lighting, music and souvenirs, designer Charles Kalpakian's playful lamp 'dog' stores books on his back and lights up by pulling his tail several times, a dynamo stores energy and provides light. Yazter recently interviewed Kalpakian here and there's a heap more work on his site hellokarl.com.
