Want originality? From top-down, the Big Switch Table Lamp by Castor Design appears to be sticking its tongue out at standard conventions. This minimalistic and modern table lamp is unique by putting emphasis on its switch rather than attempting to camouflage it into the rest of the design. The switch sticks out with its ridged surface and the variety of colors that are available. Brighten your work space, living room or bedroom with this distinct table lamp.

Rock 'n' roll lumberjacks. That pretty much sums up the punk rock-loving, Toronto-based design team of Castor Design. Experiments in upcycling have resulted in an eclectic array of contemporary lighting and accessories. Castor Design pieces are smart, industrial and elegant--and definitely tongue-in-cheek. Salvaged materials are given a new, bright life, such as old burnt-out light bulbs being turned into a shade for another fixture.
