It's time for the second post in my new series exploring the stories behind iconic designs and looking at how they can be styled in real-life homes. Today I'm focusing on a piece which was created as recently as 2014 but which has already become a contemporary Scandinavian classic: the 'JWDA' table lamp from Menu.
