The Lumo Interactive Mood Lighting may look like a set of white pebbles (the same ones Hansel once used to find his way back home with his sister, Gretel), but it was surprisingly inspired by campfires. Emitting a soft, warm glow, these 'pebbles' flicker just like the burning embers of logs. Setting a romantic and cozy vibe, this light fixture is exactly what any home could use.
Conceived by designer Simon Heapy, the Lumo Interactive Mood Lighting glows only if played with. Once the interaction dies down, so does its luminance. Heapy explains, "In the same way a fire requires fuel to sustain its illumination, the pebbles require collective nurturing from the group of users.” It comes with a paper-crete induction-charging base.
