For those offices which feel a tad sterile, perhaps a handmade lantern might warm things up? Ana Kraš, a Serbian artist based in New York, has created a delightful series of lamps called Bonbons. These multi-colored, dyed-cotton string lamps soften any rooms. Made by looping threads onto wire frames, you can see the bulb peeking through the strands, casting shadows onto nearby walls.
