Last Thursday saw the debut of the new Circus light, designed by Corinna Warm for Innermost. The light was launched at London's eclectically posh home store Aria. Aria's Barnsbury Hall location provided the perfect backdrop to Circus, Warm's modern interpretation on a Victorian circus tent.

The Circus pendant is a sleek and modern design made of spun aluminum, with a surprise of gold on the inside of the shade. Aria asked London based designers Rockman and Rockman, Custhom, and Corinna Warm to customize a Circus shade for the event. These fantastical creations are being auctioned off on eBay to raise money for the charity Art Against Knives, a charity that works to prevent knife crimes through arts programs that provide an alternative for youths who otherwise might fall into a gang lifestyle.

To place a bid on one of the shades, go to Aria's eBay page.
