Modern Home Calendar – George Nelson Bubble Light

So I’m taking a quick break from featuring an actual modern home to show you this fabulous calendar that I got for 2010.  One of my readers (hi Allen!) sent me an e-mail with a tip to go check out a bubble light calendar that he had seen downtown at Lux Lighting on NW Glisan.  I had actually been looking for a 2010 calendar early this year because I usually wait way too long, panic, then buy anything I see at the grocery store resulting in calendar purchase regrets that I have to live with and look at for a whole year. So you can imaging that I was really excited to stop by and take a look at it.

The Lux Lighting showroom is well stocked with all types of lighting fixtures and lamps.  They have a very impressive and extensive modern collection. I spent way too much time in the store creating a very long wish list of lighting fixtures for my ultimate modern home before I purchased my calendar.

The Bubble Light -An Icon of Modern Design 2010 Calendar features vintage ads from mid century Howard Miller Clock Company ads.  There is a history of the development and creation of the original bubble lamp on the back of the calendar that is a fascinating read.  You can purchase your very own bubble light calendar at Lux Lighting or I also found it at the Modernica website.

I am not paid to endorse this product, I just really like it.
