Local creative couple Carolyn and Dick Sewell (you may remember Carolyn’s hand-drawn lettering from our 2016 Best of Arlington cover) have combined their love of design and engineering to create a line of interlocking DIY light fixtures that require no tools or glue to assemble. Plylites can be customized to fit any space. You supply the light source. And if you don’t feel like dealing with wiring, they work with an LED candle, too. The sculptural plywood forms look great naked, but I’m envisioning mine dipped in gold paint. $85 at plylite.com
