Liqui Design Lamp

Came across these beauties a while ago when I attended the Grand Designs exhibition. They are called "Bagalights" and only retail at £35.00 each plus come with all fittings and an A rated energy saving bulb. Had a chat with the guy who designed them Cameron Fry who got the idea one day when a cyclist rode by with their lunch in a paper bag (if I remember correctly). The whole concept being "using an everyday item that wouldn't be considered of any value", overall  the products that Liqui Designs produce are very contemporary, innovatative and enviromentally friendly - you should check out his stuff (click link below)
