SNAKKES is a wall mounted LED light board that functions as a wall lamp and a notice board. It would be great for the kids room where it could function as a “chalk board”.

SNAKKES is the latest lamp from the Norwegian design collectiv Northern Lighting, and the word “snakkes” actually means “talk to you later” in Norwegian.
