Soru Main Lamp

Lighting changes a room more than most of the furniture in it, and a printed shade is the cheapest way to change it deliberately. Soru is the main body of the lamp — the form that stands around the source and gives the light somewhere to go. It belongs on a side table, a bedside surface, a shelf or a hallway console: the lamp you reach for when the ceiling light is too blunt for the hour. The name suggests something spare and considered rather than ornate, which is how this style of printed shade usually sits in a room — a shape first, a light fitting second. Worth printing for anyone furnishing from the machine rather than the high street, where a shop-bought shade costs more and looks like everyone else's.
