The OG Brick lamp has been designed by Omar Gandhi of the Toronto-based Omar Gandhi Architects in collaboration with Filo Timo and Aaline as a functional illuminator with a decidedly old-fashioned feel. The light is capable of being intreated into a wall where it will go to work blending into its masonry surroundings and will spring to life after dark to provide passive illumination. The light is constructed with a rigid metal body to support being positioned alongside the inherently heavy bricks and mortar.
The OG Brick lamp is designed in two size options including single width and double width, which are both rectangular in shape to work seamlessly with the masonry aesthetic. The lights maintain a low-maintenance design and can be adjusted according to the preferences of the administrator.

Trend Themes
1. Architectural Camouflage - The trend of embedding functional lighting within traditional materials offers a seamless integration of technology and classic design.
2. Disguised Illumination - Lighting solutions are being designed to blend invisibly with their environment, providing both aesthetic appeal and practical functionality.
3. Smart Masonry - Innovative lighting fixtures that integrate directly into masonry give new life to traditional construction techniques.
Industry Implications
1. Construction and Architecture - Integration of hidden functional lighting within architectural elements combines utility with design elegance.
2. Interior Design - Disguised lighting solutions are transforming how interior spaces can be subtly illuminated while maintaining aesthetic cohesion.
3. Smart Home Technology - The advent of smart lighting systems that merge with traditional building materials stimulates the growth of advanced home automation.
