When I picture the house of my dreams, I think of rooms that are inviting and creepy at the same time, where you want to hang out but it takes a minute for you to feel completely comfortable with all the weird shit staring at you. Basically, I want to live in the Adam’s Family’s house. In these rooms, Adam Wallacavage‘s chandeliers hang in almost every room, bestowing light on its occupants from hissing snakes’ mouths or dangling tentacles. Wallacavage has reinvented the chandelier from its bougie roots, and created an oddities version of it. My favorite piece is the Medusa chandelier, with its golden screaming heads, snakes with awesome snakey tongue bulbs (um, where do you get those if they burn out?) and the outpour of blood red crystals from the severed heads of this mythical beast. His specialty is octopus chandeliers, which would seem at home in some Atlantis mansion but would also add a weird and amazing quality to land-bound rooms. He also creates pieces using animal skulls which are really fucking cool, highly lacquered with crystalline teeth gaping down at you. Check out a collection of his stunning works below!
