Love Bulbs

I am a big fan of Edison light bulbs, through which you can see the filaments. They look great and cast a really nice, clean light. Design firm AvroKO must think so, too, since they've scattered the bulbs all over their clients' restaurants; witness E.U., Public, Stanton Social and the recently opened Quality Meats (shown above).

And now the company Habitat is taking it up a notch by offering these love and flower bulbs. It would be cool to display them on a base without a shade; or to cover them with a shade, so someone would get an unexpected design element if they ever peeked in, or to make a chandelier of the flower bulbs, like an upside-down bouquet.

  1. do you know what the love/flower bulbs look like when they're on? they are beautiful but i kind of don't get how they work... is it more a decoration when they're off? xo

  2. hmmm that question didn't occur to me! for the flower, it looks like the filament is below it, and maybe for the love bulb, the filament IS the love part? not sure!

    Excellent information and facts. Only real difficulty I was basically receiving was viewing the pics. No idea exactly why.

    I agree, for the most part, but don’t you feel as if the issue is more complex than that?
