The Strip Ease can be used in four different ways: bicycle rack, garbage can, bench, and vase.

Does your lighting have you in between a rock and a hard place? The Rock Lamp from Diesel with Foscarini is a contemporary lamp that will brighten your spirits, and your decor.

The Rock Lamp is part of the Successful Living Collection, a collaboration between Diesel (the clothing company!) and Foscarini, an Italian lighting company. The goal of the Successful Living Collection is to capture the Diesel lifestyle: “Ironic, unconventional, fun, fiery and creative.”

This summer, Artecnica is introducing new innovations that create, reflect, embody, and transform the concept light. It’s a fresh direction that accurately captures their latest sentiments (and the design industry overall): “Look up, look forward. Good things are on the way.” Part of the collection are these Bright Side hanging lights by Rich Brilliant Willing , which each offer a message of optimism printed on the top of the light. The phrases on the glass are “Always look on the bright side of life,” You can’t have light without darkness,” and “In the right light, at the right time, everything is extraordinary” — messages that share the theme of optimism that underlies Artecnica’s newest collection
