The increased amount of time that consumers are spending in their living spaces as of late has many seeking out ways to bring elements of the outside in, which is exactly what the conceptual 'Arki' light is intended to do. The hanging light features four rotating LED discs that will shine gradient light onto the surrounding area in order to create the feeling of sunset or other outdoor environment experience. This can be changed by uploading photos to the accompanying app and will transform a space into an inviting one that is constantly in flux instead of feeling boring after a while.
The conceptual 'Arki' light is the design work of Sohyun An and Hyunji Shi, and is well-suited to being used in a multitude of different spaces thanks to its nondescript aesthetic.
