The Seed Light is a super-simple pendant lamp that nevertheless brings as much life into a room as it does light. Its design reference to buds, blossoms and growth really would brighten up a living space, just as its warm glow provides a happy comfort to those who are rest within its embrace.
Created by Ukraine-based designer Vasiliy Butenko, the Seed Light features two flat, smooth sides that have been fastened together through the use of a zipper. Not only does this zipper introduce an interesting design detail, which actually gives this organic and minimalist light fixture some contemporary edge, it also makes it easy to change the light bulbs. The Seed Light therefore combines form with function.
