Metalarte's newest light fixture demands customer interaction. In order for light to be diffused from the Jordi Canuda's Lesslamp, the ceramic shade must be pierced. A pickaxe is purchased along with the shade and the user releases the light by creating holes or picking away at the surface. A cracked egg effect can be had for more light, or simply a speckled globe for more ambient lighting.
Seems a bit over the top.

Personally, I hate anything that's more gimmick than design. And this is waaaaaay up there on the gimmick-o-meter for me.

That is a pretty cool concept. I wouldn't buy one, but I like the pictures.

The ax is kinda cool looking -- but I can't help thinking of it as a weapon or surgical instrument. Trepanning anyone?
