More About Space Lamp
Space is a table lamp inspired by the surfaces of planets. The lamp consists of a table lamp base, a spherical shade and an OLED lamp body. The shade is made with glass blowing technology, so each piece has a unique surface texture created by the varying density of the material. Light is emitted in two ways. A bright beam passes through an opening in the sphere and lights the area below, while the irregular translucent texture spreads a soft glow. Space also serves as a decorative object when not in use.

Design Details
- Unique Properties
- This is a space-style lamp that consists of a table lamp base, a spherical lamp shade, and an OLED lamp body. It is suitable for various scenes and serves as a beautiful space decoration when not in use. The lampshade's surface coincides with a planet's surface, and the irregular colors and lights combine to create a post-modernist style lamp with a sense of beauty and artistic conception.
- Inspiration
- The surface of the spherical lampshade coincides with the surface of the planet. The irregular colors and lights are organically combined to create a post-modernist style lamp with a sense of beauty and artistic conception. When not in use, it is another beautiful space decoration.
- Research
- The beauty of the universe's diversity and mystery inspires humans to explore space continually. The lamp's colors and irregular patterns reflect the changeable colors and beauty of planets, which is due to the processing technology that creates subtle uncertainty, constituting the beauty of nature.
- Challenge
- The challenge was to create a post-modernist style lamp that reflects the beauty and artistic conception of the universe while also functioning as a practical lamp. The glass blowing technique was used to create a unique surface texture for each product, and the lamp's design combines irregular colors and lights to form a natural and harmonious mood.
- Realization and Technology
- The lamp uses glass blowing technology, which results in each product having a unique surface texture due to the different density of the material surface. The lamp body emits light in two ways, with the bright light of the sphere’s hole directly illuminating the area, and the other parts of the sphere faintly diffusing the light through the irregular translucent texture, creating a natural and harmonious mood.
- Operation and Interaction
- The luminaire creates a quiet and relaxing lighting atmosphere for users at night, relieving the stress of daily life.
- Project Duration and Location
- The project begins in China in July 2022 and ends in China in October 2022.
