On-off lamp: Dude... I think I broke it

on_off01.jpgHow many hours are wasted each day by people searching for the switch to turn off a lamp? Is it on the base, up by the bulb — ouch! — or on the wall?

Israeli design studio Reddish has a unique lamp with no switch at all. A switch is integrated right into the lamp pole. Stand the lamp up — light is on. Knock it down — lamp is off. It's only 25 inches tall, so you won't trip over in the dark.

Don't worry if you don't like how it looks when it's off. It will be dark — no one will see it.
