Roundup: Geometric Lamps

Have you been keeping up with Mad Men this season?

Have you been keeping up with Mad Men this season? As usual, I'm inspired by the show's authentic set design, whether it's on the homefront or in the workplace. In this latest episode, my eyes lingered on Pete Campbell's geometric, wooden office lamp. It's such a great contrast to his desk's utilitarian task lamp.

I took a look around for similar lamps that embrace geometric shapes and strong lines. Now you, too, can borrow a little bit of Pete Campbell's business style in your home office. See my favorite finds below.

I've totally fallen for the geometric base of this West Elm Geo Side Table ($199). I love how it has such a graphic presence but simultaneously seems really light. I thought I'd see what other geometric furniture I could round up. Turns out, geometry has been an inspiration for all sorts of designs, including stools, armchairs, side chairs, dinner tables, and side tables. See my finds below!

The 10 Coolest Black and White Geometric Wallpapers

When shopping for accessories, bedding, and table linens, I tend to gravitate toward color. But I am also very much a solids girl. So I'm thinking that a geometric black and white wallpaper would give me the pop and pattern that I need, while still allowing me to go crazy with colorful accessories. Of course there are unlimited wallpapers in the world to choose from, but only a handful really catch my eye. Tell me which ones you prefer!

Geometric accessories are a great way to toughen up soft, feminine outfits--and you can wear them through both seasons. The sharp angles and confident patterns make them long-lasting, not trendy, and without color there's no telling the styling combinations one could come up with. Our favorites, above!
