Concept 37: The "Ascending Arm"
This design features a grounded rock base from which a delicate brass fitting supports a slender wood arm, angled sharply upwards, suspending the light from its highest point.
- Rock Base: A substantial, irregular, rough-textured rock, providing a solid, natural anchor.
- Brass Attachment (Small & Light): This is key. A minimalist, sleek brass fitting will be cleanly and securely attached to the front face of the rock. This fitting will be barely large enough to hold the wood dowel, conveying a sense of lightness and precision. It won't project much itself.
- Round Wood Dowel (45-Degree Angle): A round walnut wood dowel will pass through this small brass attachment (or be securely fixed within it). The dowel will then immediately angle sharply upwards at a 45-degree angle, projecting gracefully into space.
- Suspended Bulb (Highest Point): The light bulb will be suspended by its cord from the very uppermost point of the angled wood dowel.
- Cord: A fabric-wrapped cord (e.g., black or bronze) will run discreetly along the dowel, then drop down to the bulb.
- Bulb Type: A warm, globe-style Edison bulb or a clear vintage bulb.
- Effect: This lamp will be dynamic and sculptural, emphasizing the upward trajectory of the wood and the delicate suspension of the light. The raw power of the rock will anchor the entire, visually light composition.
