The minimalist
There's a new addition to Balmuda Design's Highwire LED desk lamp series, which has already turned heads thanks to the thin aluminum bodies of its sleek offerings. The worthy followup is called the Highwire Smooth and is available in a smaller size, with a few technical improvements that should get you thinking about upgrading your original Highwire. The biggest improvement — one that boasts eco-implications — is the lowering of the new lamp's energy consumption down to 4.5 watts, with a lifespan of more than 50,000 hours per LED bulb. The lamp is also specifically engineered to be used with monitors, as it is designed to reduce eye fatigue following long hours in front of a screen. The Highwire Smooth retails for ¥38,000.
