id rounds up three products that are captivating yet have an artistic touch with functionality
A captivating creation by interior designer Hania Jneid, this unique floor lamp draws inspiration from chemistry sets to offer a truly unique lighting experience. Crafted through Jneid’s own studio, this exquisite piece features a slender metal stand adorned with beaker-like glass vessels that emit a warm, ambient glow. The optional metal modules, including a vase and a small storage unit, not only provide material contrast but also add a compelling narrative layer to the design. Designed to evoke childhood memories of chemistry labs, the Emotional Lab light invites users to explore its playful and interactive elements. We are fascinated by the lamp’s ability to be configured into various compositions, simulating the excitement of a new chemical reaction and offering a fresh aesthetic with each arrangement. Part of the Emotional Lab series, this lamp is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Spain, Italy and Lebanon. It boasts a structure available in anodised aluminium, brass or stainless steel, complemented by a selection of luxurious marbles for the base. With its blend of innovation, craftsmanship and nostalgic charm, the Emotional Lab floor lamp is a must-have for design enthusiasts seeking a statement piece that sparks both conversation and admiration.
