Portuguese designer Tó Martins makes lamps from old washing machine drums and camera tripods. He covers the drum shades in a variety of materials, including corks and measuring tapes (all of which look new; wouldn’t it be great if used items were applied to the drums?). (via Rewash Lamp | Design Milk)
If you missed the washing machine drum lamps we featured previously (here), check them out. The metal drums are left uncovered so light is able to shine through the perforations — a nice contrast to the lamps pictured above.
Note: Since this post includes a new use for corks, I’m counting it as a “wine o’clock” post!
