The lamp’s distinctive design is made even more interesting by its texture, which resembles that of a real orange peel. Its bright color is enhanced with the help of natural food coloring – and some say it smells like fresh orange cookies.

Each piece comes with a power cord with USB plug, a touch button, and an LED bulb. Ohmie is featured on Kickstarter , a crowdfunding site that seeks to boost innovative projects; anyone interested in purchasing it can get it it for €72. Source: Designboom
