Objects Of Design #194: House Pendant

A good strong light will help them see their homework

This rather beautiful pendant needn’t just be restricted to kids’ bedrooms but if they’ve grown out of their  previous, more childish decor, then this will provide a sharp contrast. The red flex adds a funky touch and  the fact that it gives off light in all directions should provide a good strong glow for homework and prevent eyestrain (assuming you put in a decent bulb that is).

This is part of the store’s new own brand range and rather fabulous it is too. Items for every room in the house with a clean, structural, dare one say Scandinavian feel to it all.
