Non-literal Lighting

The kitchy-classic Moo lamp, designed by Trond Svengård and Ove Rogne at Northern Lighting. The poly-resin lamp works indoors or out and was inspired by trips to Northern Norway, where moose frequented the lawns of the designers' summer homes.

Adding bulbs in the antlers makes for a smooth and consistent glow.  This is the Scandinavian equivalent of the lion...the king of the forest.
