Dandilight is a product exhibited at the 100% Futures show at 100% Design last week, by young designer Benjamin Hubert.
The resin-cast lamp features radiating architectural forms.
Hubert and the lamp feature in our movie about 100% Design.
Here's a bit of info from Hubert:

Dandilight - Benjamin Hubert
A range of resin cast interior lamps inspired by sprawling cityscapes and the shift towards urbanisation.
Dandilights are floor and pendant lamps embodying geometric urban environments counterbalanced with a softer organic macro form, reflecting the aesthetic of a dandelion.
Lamps are comprised of a resin cast head and a sandblasted aluminium stand (floor lamp).
why is it so hard to be original? Even the name isn’t
see the Dandelion lamp of MOOOI
What is unoriginal about the form??
The mooi lamp is nothing like this…forget the name concentrate on the design
i’ll give a couple of reasons:
1. simple market demand for “new”, or seemingly new things.
2.lack of research into precendent
3.good ol’ mimesis
4.mtv
Wel i love the design and havnt seen anything else like it…. I want one! beautiful (and original) work.
Fun and whimsical, and I love the little skyscrapers ! Great design !
