LEGO-Like Beside Lights

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Building Blocks Lamp Stacks Up as an Intensified Source

— March 13, 2014 — Art & Design
It sounds as though the Building Blocks Lamp has an intensity adjuster, but this would not be the only way that you could modify the brightness of your bedside light. The 25togo product invites you build additional units on top of it, making it possible to achieve multiples of the three-setting illumination system.

Translucent acrylic material was molded into the familiar shape of a toy brick, yet scaled up to measure 15cm by 10cm by 6cm in height. It may not strictly be a plaything, but its protrusions do enable you to snap different pieces together effectively.

A perfectly playful nightlight for a kid's bedroom, the Building Blocks Lamp contains safe a low-heat and energy-efficient LED source. It even comes with a second bulbless brick that can serve as a handy pen holder.
