Phantom is an integrated wall lamp designed for living rooms and commercial spaces. All parts of Phantom are placed inside the wall, which creates the illusion of a three-dimensional table lamp gliding on the surface. The form is inspired by rock-cut architecture and by the restrained exterior of Byzantine churches. Two material versions are offered: one in brass and one in gypsum, which lowers the cost and allows painting in any color. LEDs are placed above and below the body. A touch sensor at the lower part adjusts the light with one touch.

- The lamp consists of two versions of materials. The first is brass. It consists of metal. The outer side is laid in primer in order to paint it later. LEDs are located above and below: from above with a wide scattering angle, and from below with a narrow one. A touch sensor is located at the bottom in order to adjust power by one touch.
Second lamp is made of another material, but it was developed on the same principle. However, it is supposed to be made of gypsum in order to reduce the cost of the design and allow to paint the lamp in any color. - Design Challenge
- The main difficulty of this project was the visualization of the idea. Since it is difficult to clearly show the optical illusion.
- Project Duration
- The project started in March 2021 in Moscow and finished in April 2021 in January Moscow.
