Frutta

Frutta is a floor lamp that takes up the form of a fruit tree. Users can pick the lights off of the tree as if they were fruits, creating an intimate and nostalgic experience between humans and lighting. Frutta is a modular system, allowing lights to be detached from the main floor lamp unit and reattached to optional cradles giving users control over how light expresses itself throughout a space. Frutta promises to enrich your life by offering limitless lighting solutions made possible by combining clever design with a bit of your imagination.

Little Kong

Little Kong is a series of ambient lamps that contains oriental philosophy. Oriental aesthetics pays great attention to the relationship between virtual and actual, full and empty. Hiding the LEDs subtly into the metal pole not only ensures the empty and purity of the lampshade but also distinguishes Kong from other lamps. Designers found out the feasible craft after more than 30 times experiments to present the light and various texture perfectly, which enables amazing lighting experience. The base supports wireless charging and has a USB port. It can be turned on or off just by waving hands.

25 Nano

25 Nano is an artistic light instrument to represent ephemeral and permanence, birth and death. Working with Spring Pool Glass Industrial CO., LTD, whose vision is building a systematic glass recycle loop for a sustainable future, 25 Nano chose the relatively fragile bubble as a medium in contrast with solid glass to embody the idea. In the instrument, light shimmers through life cycles of the bubble, projecting rainbow-like color and shadows to the environment, creating a dreamy atmosphere around the user.

The Intelligent Eggshell

It is a combination of traditional hand-made eggshell porcelain and modern voice control light. It is an attempt to revive the folk arts that may not conform to the functions and aesthetics of contemporary society. The housing is ergonomic with a tapered design which is not only curved back to fit nicely in your hand, but also not easy to be knocked over. The point-line-surface carved texture like a shining night sky in the light. It can also have your hands free for the voice control function.

Aggregate

Aggregate is a floor lamp collection of three unique silhouettes classically sculpted with a variety of recycled materials: plastic, concrete, and steel. Each piece strategically uses height and the angle of the LED tube bulbs to evenly diffuse refracted light into any large space. The resulting design is organic yet commanding, providing the bold emission of light from each distinct form.

In this way, it is able to fulfill its technical role of lighting control while generating an innovative user experience.
