Creative Lighting

Alongside my teaching and consultancy work, I design and create unique table and floor lamps. My fascination with electricity, particularly lighting, has been a lifelong passion that now shapes and inspires my creativity. If you are interested in purchasing any of my pieces, please get in touch via my contact form. I am also happy to create bespoke designs tailored to your specification.

Upcycled Telephone Lamps

Each carefully restored vintage GPO telephone has been converted into a fully functioning table lamp. The lamps incorporate bright white LEDs, an inline switch, and USB power, combining nostalgic design with modern efficiency.

Vintage Upcycled Petrol Can Table Lamp

A vintage petrol can transformed into a striking LED table lamp. The can has been finished with a thick coat of varnish while retaining its original patina, and a stainless steel funnel has been repurposed as the lampshade. The lamp features an inline power switch and USB plug, allowing it to be powered from the mains or a power bank. Ideal for classic car enthusiasts—or anyone looking for something a little different.

A unique table lamp featuring a slate base and an LED light source housed within a camera lens–style casing. The lamp includes an inline power switch and USB plug, enabling use with mains power or a power bank. Two picture frames are included, offering a quirky way to display cherished photographs.
