Architect turned designer <a href="http://www.degercengiz.com/" target="_blank">Deger Cengiz</a>’s lighting pieces are works that thoughtfully fuse art and design. On display at the Wanted Design Show at <a href="http://inhabitat.com/new-york-design-week/" target="_blank">New York Design Week</a>, the design veteran’s quirky Dino Desk Lamp holds true to his style; combining a functional task lamp with a plant pot (or pen holder, depending on your preference). Made of <a href="http://inhabitat.com/ross-menuezs-icosa-lamp-gives-recyclable-felt-a-crystalline-form/" target="_blank">recyclable felt</a>, the Dino Lamp has a multi-functional container base to store your goodies -- including the leafy green kind!

Dino’s flexible neck can be angled and bent in any direction for your lighting needs. A <a href="http://inhabitat.com/switch-announces-worlds-first-100-watt-equivalent-led-bulb/" target="_blank">bright LED bulb</a> ensures long lasting bright white- and energy efficient- illumination.

The best part, is the lamp’s base. Dino’s neck grows from a felt lined cup-sized container. The possibilities are endless! Store pens and markers, loose change, office supplies, even snacks. Or- even better- use the power of Dino’s <a href="http://inhabitat.com/joby-stathis-beautiful-lamp-transforms-into-a-rechargeable-flashlight/" target="_blank">LED</a> lamp to grow your own mini eco-system! Small ferns or cacti can turn Dino into a living lamp- just don’t forget to use a water tight <a href="http://inhabitat.com/cool-planting-pots-made-from-recycled-tires/" target="_blank">planter</a>.
