Glass Balloon Ceiling and Wall Lamps Add A Festive Touch.





This collection of ceiling and wall light fixtures that look just like balloons were designed by Boris Klimek for Brokis.





"Memory" lights are inspired by memories of childhood and are made of opal glass, come in eight different colors, as a ceiling mount or wall mount, and in three sizes.




The hanging cord is used for turning on and off lights. The range of colors create different interior atmospheres suitable for anything from a child's room to a formal dinner party.

Gold Balloons and Glass Top Coffee Table. The UP Coffee Table by Duffy London.





Duffy London design studio introduces the UP Coffee Table, a whimsical table with glass table top held up by gold glass and metal resin composite 'balloons' with steel rods as the 'balloon strings' and doubling as support.







Working with the illusion of levitation and buoyancy, the UP coffee table is a playful trompe l’oeil, giving the impression that a piece of glass is being suspended by small balloons.

This hand made table is a limited edition of twenty. Because it is designed without compromise, the tables are extremely time consuming to create.

"Growing old is compulsory, growing UP is optional" - Bob Monkhouse
