The Norm 06 lamp shade, designed by Simon Karkov for Normann Copenhagen, Denmark, is a staple at MODERN in Eugene. Always hanging in a window or by our jewelry, it is a conversation piece for all who enter.

The large size is perfect for a dining room table with a lovely diffuser to hide the light bulb. Takes 60 watts or lower of a CFL light bulb. The lamp will arrive in a flat box ready for you to assemble, which will require some folding and inserting into tabs. No tools or glue needed. Cords and hard-wire fixtures are sold separately.

Its structural beauty is organic in nature, throwing interesting shapes and shadows from its light.

The Norm 69 lamp shade was designed by Simon Karkov for Normann Copenhagen, Denmark. This shade was named for its 69 pieces that the owner assembles in 1-2 hours. Architecturally superb, it has amazing angles and lines that work well in a mid-century modern home or a craftsman style contemporary. This light looks amazing over a dining room table, in a vaulted entry way, close to the ceiling in an office, or swagged from a hook next to your Blu Dot Buttercup chair.

Like its predecessor the Norm 3, the Norm 3 Steel is a thing of beauty. Designed by Britt Kornum for Normann Copenhagen, Denmark, the Norm 3 Steel is a most modern lamp born of organic design and sophisticated structural materials. Light is refected upon its steel "ribbons", and the shadows thrown by its light make for a very appealing ambience. This lamp comes prepared for simple assembly (including white gloves), fabric cord, and a steel ceiling plate. An electritian's assistance is recommended due to the nature of the materials and wiring needs.
The Loopy Lu Shade, designed and manufactured by New Zealander Lothair Haman, is one of our favorite new lights. We have all of the colors hanging in the store windows, and every morning we clean finger and nose prints from the evening looky-loos off those windows. Made from polypropylene, they are very bright and bubbly. The lamp arrives in an envelope with detailed instructions of how to weave the loops into each other, forming your shade. Piece of cake! Available in green and orange. Cords and hard-wire fixtures are sold separately.
Cascading layers of dazzling forest creatures and foliage, Tord Boontje's Midsummer Light for Artecnica, Los Angeles, adds an enchanting glow to any room. Midsummer Light is constructed from two layers of cut Tyvek, a super-resistant paper material, draped over a protective heat-blocking cone. It looks amazing hung in clusters of 2 or 3 above a bar or kitchen island, as a single or pair above a bed, or alone as an accent lamp. Perfect for a girl's room also. This light has been the recipient of numerous awards and has been featured in countless notable design publications. We love it at MODERN and believe it is destined to become a design icon. Also available in all white. Cords and hard-wire fixtures are sold separately.
The Icarus light shade, designed by Tord Boontje for Artecnica, Los Angeles, is nothing but poetic. Customers at MODERN comment that it reminds them of feathers, angels, exotic birds, and your occasional punk-rock wig. Constructed from multiple layers of extruded lightweight polyester and formed to resemble a bird's wing, it is a lovely art piece. We hang ours in the front window of the store as a statement of what we believe beautiful modern design is all about. The feathers blow softly like a mobile, ever moving and providing interest to the viewer. And it casts a beautiful silhouette. Hang it in a corner, an entry-way, a bathroom, or next to a bed.
The Loop II Lamp Shade is created by textile artist Anne Kyyro Quinn, London. The Loop II makes a fabulous table lamp as well as a floor or hanging lamp.

Cute AND clever, the Many Holes Shade with its signature cut-out holes comes flat-packed for easy shipping and quick assembly. The shade is comprised of 3 layers of white synthetic felt. It looks very mod next to a great sofa or desk on a floor lamp stand or equally stunning as a desk light. Also comes ready to hang. Accepts up to a 100 watt CFL (recommended) or incandescent light bulb.
Heath Nash is the designer for the cutting-edge Anemone Light for Artecnica. Innovative in design, material, and application, it is a fabulous shade. Anemone is a malleable white lamp composed of connected four-wall cells. A protective metal sphere inside the lamp both isolates the bulb from the exterior and serves as the lamp's core, turning it into an interactive piece that can be used on a variety of surfaces. It can be hung conventionally, but we love it flopped on the floor as accent lighting. Anemone infuses simple geometric forms with an unexpected fluidity, turning a conventionally static object into a playful, tactile experience. Available in 2 sizes, small and large.
Double Stray is a flexible white ceiling lamp inspired by the simplicity and translucence of Chinese paper lanterns. Packaged flat, the piece unfolds accordion-style to reveal an intricate moir pattern. The name Double Stray is derived from the two overlapping line grids that serve as both the focal point of the lampshade's visual style as well as the source of its structural integrity. Designed by Inga Sempe, made of durable Tyvek. Accepts 60w maximum light bulb; cords or hardwire fixtures sold separately.
