Maglight Transforms Magazines into a Colorful Table Lamp by



Created from old magazines, Jürg Grassl's "Maglight" glows like stained glass thanks to the glossies' colorful pages. Beautifully constructed, the lamp showcases the possibilities that exist when you can design with low-heat LED bulbs. Recycled everyday materials are upcycled into gorgeous design.

    I like the folding of the magazines in this, it adds a lot of dimension to this piece

    Wunderschön mit tollem Lichtstrahl, einmalige Form, super Idee für Nutzung von alten Zeitschriften.

    The colors of a magazine give warm feelings to the room, I guess.

    I think the winning characteristic is that this design would have been dangerous or expensive without LEDs. Many of the others are really cool, and more efficient do to the LEDs, but they could have been achieved using standard incandescents or halogens.
