“WTF, Not What I Thought” Lamp: No, Really… WTF?
Maybe Steve, our French-speaking publisher here at Gearfuse could better answer the question, "Why the fuck do French designers always have to do things bass ackwards? Does it make them feel more 'artsy?' Do your berets block your eyesight? Too much wine perhaps?'" The "WTF, Not What I Thought" ...

WTFLamp lights up counterintuitively
CrunchGear — ... time to purge your mind of such design prejudices and embrace the weird and impractical; this “WTF, not what I thought” lamp, designed by John Nouanesing, will challenge your notions of what a lighting device should be.
