Ukrainian designer Vasiliy Butenko set out to challenge himself by creating a table lamp under these strict guidelines: use few parts, easy assembly, and optimum functionality. He achieved all that and then some with Table Lamp “OOO” . Inspired by modern design from the 1920s, where creating simple design can oftentimes require complicated structure, he wanted to look at things in a different way. Using a 1mm thick plate for the top part of the lamp and 3mm thick plate for the base, that are then connected by a tube, the lamp’s only other parts are two magnets, a screw, and a lightbulb. The bright yellow lamp swivels with the help of two powerful neodymium magnets

Christoph Meyl partnered with his brother Hendrik to formulate the idea to what it is today, and the duo brought in LUNAR Europe to help with the design
