Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Armstrong Trap Lamp Emits Rays from Its Removable Moon-Like Craters

— January 6, 2015 — Life-Stages
The Armstrong Trap Lamp does not require a switch, a dimmer or a stand to function, for it provides its user with some intuitive and hands-on mechanisms to achieve his or her ideal level of lighting. Made in the form a sphere, and produced with openings all over its surface, this multipurpose illuminator can be playfully manipulated in order to turn it on.

Capable of being set up as cordless and battery-powered, Constantin Bolimond's table lamp sits like an abstract sculpture. With each of its holes plugged by cork caps, the object produces no illumination; however, the removal of just one will cause the energy-efficient LEDs to glow from within. If the user wants a higher level of light, he can easily remove more stoppers from the Armstrong Trap Lamp, on the side that faces him.
Trend Themes
1. Intuitive Lighting Mechanisms - Designing lighting fixtures that can be manipulated to achieve ideal levels of lighting without the need for switches or dimmers presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the lighting industry.
2. Multipurpose Illuminators - Creating sphere-shaped lamps with openings all over its surface that can be plugged and unplugged to produce illumination provides unique opportunities for the home decor industry to offer both lighting and art in one product.
3. Cordless Lighting - Developing battery-powered lamps that can be easily moved around without the need for cords provides a disruptive innovation opportunity for the portable lighting industry.
Industry Implications
1. Lighting Industry - Providing innovative lighting fixtures that offer intuitive mechanisms to adjust lighting levels presents an opportunity for the lighting industry to cater to evolving consumer preferences for modern and unique lighting solutions.
2. Home Decor Industry - Creating multipurpose lamps that also serve as art can provide opportunities for the home decor industry to offer products that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing.
3. Portable Lighting Industry - Developing cordless lamps that can be easily moved around without the need for cords can provide opportunities for the portable lighting industry to offer convenient and flexible lighting solutions for consumers on the go.
