South Korean design group Monocomplex consists of four young designers who design and build furniture and accessories. Their Objet series (Experience from the past) launched in November 2010 and features three curious lamps that explore memory and warmth. Spool by Hwang Eunsang The spool brings to mind memories of warm figures of mothers who are sewing. This work makes the basic forms and usage of the spool and needle reborn into a modern object by which everyone can feel this warm nostalgia. Icicle by Cho Jangwon When winter comes, we see icicles hanging on the eaves

Placa is a new lamp by Gonçalo Campos . The lamp shades are placed on a wooden board, creating a stage on which other objects can be placed. The lamps point towards the other essential element in this composition, the switch, creating a special dynamic between all of the elements. The switch is also placed on the wooden board instead of in the cord, making it a part of the lamp, and not just an appendix. A lamp that despite its simplicity boasts character and highlights its structure and materials.
