There are a lot of things you can do freestyle and that is perhaps what best describes these Cap Lamps by Mars. Designed by Hwasung Yoo, it doesn’t get any simpler than this. We simply have a lamp here that is made up of a twiggy black that makes up for an effective and slightly eccentric hinged stand, topped off by three prongs that structurally reference a coat rack.

Simply add a cap to serve as a lamp shade with this one and you get a dandy table lamp which you can have by your bedside for reading yourself to sleep or maybe by a working table when you are still busy doing some work-related stuff.

After seeing those geeky designed Web Icon Wall Clocks the other day, here is another one to add to that list called the YouTube Icon Table Clock. As you would guess, it carries pretty much the same concept. The background is different of course, using the YouTube logo as its main body design.

Clocks were never as advanced today as they were in the earlier years, maybe even most of us were around. But for the curious minds, here is a clock that should come close to taking you back to the timepieces of yesteryears called the Umbra Time Teller.

The Umbra Time Teller takes the concept of the sundial, relying on the traditional clock hands to tell time. It features some shadowed lines to show the hour and the minutes, common but on a different way of telling the time.

The Umbra Time Teller was designed by Roshan Hakkim, something that relies on two strips of LED and not actual sunlight. The needle casts two shadows on the surface of the clock depending on the position of both lights. These two shadows represent either the hour or the minute, giving the clock an overall clean and simple look.
