In general, I don't like cutesy when it comes to interior design, and modern style can be just as gag-inducing as a handpainted goose mailbox or a repurposed toilet seat. In fact, a lot of what's on the Crate 'n' Barrel off-shoot cb2.com is too precious, too intentional, too obvious.
But I have a soft spot for the new Alpha floor lamp, an out-sized replica of those ubiquitous 80's desk lamps that lit my evenings of mix-tape making and essay writing. A tongue-in-cheek idea, but the design being mocked is still perfection.
