FLATPACK LIGHTS


A continuos challenge for designers worldwide is to create nice products which performs and look great but are eighter stackable or have a minimal size during transportation.
With this aim the Netherland based Studio Mango unvealed two amazing pieces of lighting design: the Spring Lamp, a coiled length of rubber which when hung it unfolds itself like a full bell shade, and the Lygo Lamb, basically a DiY lamp made of 144 lego-like curved bricks. Both -when not assembled- are small enough to be inserted in a letter box.
Simple, smart, playfull... genius.

I HAVE SEEN THE LIGHT

What about 55.000 led lights assembled together to form an unreal colorful cathedral?
That is named "Luminarie De Cagna" and it was recently built for the 2012 Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium.
The festival featured almost 30 exhibitions including a lot of projection mapping, fields of luminous flowers, and even a glowing phone booth aquarium. However, with its mystical and psychedelic appeal, the Luminarie De Cagna seems to have stolen the show.
