5 Favorites: Avian-Inspired Children’s Lights

August 21, 2012

We're not sure why, but birds seem to serve as inspiration for some of our favorite lighting designers. We're all in favor; here are five we like (and use in our own homes):

5 Favorites AvianInspired Childrens Lights portrait 3

Above: The ceramic Early Bird Pendant Light is available in several colors; $160 from Perch Design.

700 ingo maurer birdie sconce 1

Above: Francesca used the Ingo Maurer Lucellino NT Wall Sconce in her children's Brooklyn bathroom; $335 at Lumens.

700 alouette wall front 1

Above: Hard to resist: the Alouette Collection of avian-inspired lighting from Atelier Areti, a team of far-flung European designers who work collaboratively. The pieces are handmade from powder-coated metal and fabric-covered cable with brass joints. The Alouette 1 Bird Wall Lamp is £204 from Wayfair.

Above: Designed by Ed Carpenter and made in the UK, the clip-on Pigeon Night Light is available in gray, white, black, yellow, hot pink, or orange; 67 at Theo Theo.

700 homm bird light

Above: The clip-on Bird Light instantly tranforms a bare bulb into a bird in flight; go to Hommin for dealers.
