Shape-Shifting Lumber Lamps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The D.k Light is Adaptable to Your Desired Arrangement

— July 23, 2011 — Art & Design
A light fixture can generally be considered a table lamp, a standing lamp or perhaps a pendant lamp, but seldom a combination of these. The D.k Light, however, boasts the capacity to conform to a variety of such strict classifications.

Five separate wooden segments threaded with a cable allow it accomplish this, encouraging flexibility in form determined by the tautness of the cord. When fixed tightly, the rectangular spine stands tall and rigid, fastened firmly in place by a vice attached to a table. A subtle loosening of the wire allows the straight structure to sag, creating a delicate curve despite the fragmented column. Simon Evrard's adaptable design for the D.k Light even allows the user to space the blocks out sparsely, using simply the end as a sort of flashlight.
Trend Themes
1. Adaptable Lighting Fixtures - Flexible light fixtures that can conform to various classifications are in demand.
2. Segmented Design - Segmented designs are increasing in popularity for their flexibility and adaptability.
3. Customizable Home Decor - Consumers are looking for home decor items that can be personalized to their individual style and needs.

2. Lighting - The lighting industry can develop more innovative and versatile light fixtures using segmented designs and customizable features like the D.k Light.
