By DIY MavenUPDATE: GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED
The Curbly Team and I are excited to announce a new and exciting giveaway from CSN Lighting! The prize is this fabulous George Kovacs floor lamp from George’s Reading Room Collection, which is valued at $300. The brushed nickel, etched opal glass shade reading lamp is 64.75” tall, which makes it the perfect height to place next to a bed, desk or couch for reading.
In his four decades long career, George Kovacs has helped revolutionize the lighting industry by championing contemporary designs with a retro flair. Although they are both graceful and fanciful, they’re always functional. His Reading Room Collection is a perfect illustration of this. The metallic finishes are sleek yet distinctive. The opal shades provide directional light while flooding rooms with a comforting glow. Makes you want a Kovacs of your very own, doesn’t it?

I'm in the process of revamping my bedroom and I think this would be fabulous for a small reading area there.

I would use this lamp in my den, which just so happens to be where I read and make my jewelry! Love it!

Ohhh very classic. I am collecting furniture for my office when I graduate from Grad School next year. with 85K in debt I doubt I could afford a George Kovacs lamp.

I would use this next to my craft comfy chair! It will also look great next to my Eames walnut stool!

I would use this lamp as a dual purpose light source, turned up wards to accentuate a wall hanging or framed picture and downwards for reading and craft work.

I like expensive lamps!

This would definitely go into our office over our reading chair. It is beautiful,

I live in a small studio in Austin, so putting it next to my poang as a reading light.... well... makes it a living room lamp, a bedroom reading light, and mood lighting for the kitchen!
Caroline
This would be a brilliant reading light over my bed!
Lynne
In the bedroom, by the bed. Since I havent gotten around to buying reading lights yet, my husband uses his head lamp (you know the type climbers and miners wear strapped to their heads) which is just really creepy.
Brendan
Love it! I would put this lamp next to a danish modern reading chair I'm in the process of re-finishing. It'd be a great reading area. Thanks!
Roseanna
I would use this in my living room for reading. It is gorgeous! Thanks for this great giveaway.

I'm looking for nice flat in my city. When I'll find something good - then I need to decorate my apartment. With my three pillows "Ctrl Alt Del" and few fancy stuff that lamp will be absolutely perfect for my place :-). Sorry for my english :-]
YAM
Next to my bed for some reading. Thanks great giveaway.
Shari
This would go wonderfully in our home office corner, that has recently been starting to shape up. It would be an elegant to finish to a DIYish area with a bulletin board full of "vintage" (B/W 1970s & 80s) family photos. I like! I wish! Do they ship overseas? Thanks Curbly!

What a gorgeous and simple lamp. Lighting in the way of lamps always seems to come last in our house, this would look great bedside!
mila
What a beauty! Slim, graceful and smile-generating...just like my little girl; I'd put the lamp in my daughter's room near her 1960's mirror so she can see exactly how lovely she is each and every day.
