Twist This Minimalist Side Table's Handle, and It Becomes the Lamp - Yanko Design
"Side tables and lamps behave awkwardly in small apartments. The drink and book migrate from sofa to armchair throughout the day, but the lamp never seems to be where you need it, and the cable gets dragged across the floor. Most furniture still assumes a fixed layout, even though habits are much more fluid, especially in spaces where the same corner has to function as office, living room, and dining area by Thursday."
"Grab & Glow is a portable side table with a clever twist. Its legs pass through the tabletop and continue upward to form a single handle. That handle is the thing you instinctively reach for when you want to move it, so the table, light, and whatever is on top travel together instead of you juggling a tray in one hand and a lamp in the other while trying not to trip over the cord."
"The handle is also the light source. You loosen a small bolt at the edge, rotate the handle, and a hidden light flicks on at the curved end. The same tube that makes the table easy to carry becomes an arm that throws a pool of light onto the surface below, so the gesture of settling in somewhere new and turning on the lamp is literally the same motion, one twist."
Grab & Glow is a portable side table whose legs pass through the tabletop and continue upward to form a single handle that doubles as the thing used to move the table. The handle also functions as the light source: loosening a bolt and rotating the handle reveals a hidden light at the curved end, directing a pool of light onto the surface below. The tabletop is a powder-coated metal disc with a slight lip and a resilient finish resistant to scratches and rings. The circular footprint keeps it compact. Integrated cable management routes the power cord down one leg with clips and a rim cut-out lets plugs pass without pinching.
