Tom Rossau

I used one of these lamps (the standard metal version) all throughout architecture school. While Tom Rossau's version really doesn't modify the design at all, I like his use of wood veneer - it makes for a beautiful, soft light, and it's totally appropriate for all those late nights making basswood models.

Tom makes beautiful, sculptural lights out of wood veneers, primarily out of birch. Check out his website for more.
