Estudi Arola created a set of lamps that look like tables, or, a set of tables that function as lamps. And, they even made a bookshelf. I like how you can hang the little one on the wall and use it as a sconce. Photos by Koke Bartrina.

Last month WHO Gallery , located in Lisbon, Portugal, opened the LESS exhibition with works by Pedro Sottomayor . The exhibition presents new works that lose the excess that forms them, while maintaining their function.
