The Opening Flower Light Shade - Lull

Lull Light

This is a cool light for the kids bedroom, the LULL. In the daytime the petals are open and the light shines at full brightness but when it’s time for the little ones to go to sleep the petals close and the light dims.

I’ve no idea how the LULL works or if it’s just conceptual at the moment but if you know Norwegian please let us know via a comment because I want one. Found via freshome, thank you.

Hey, sadly there is no concrete info on when you will be able to buy it, but they hope it will go into production soon-

Here is the translation of the article:

Won design award:

With this lamp the Fredikstad based designers won an award.

Marianne Varmi, Heidi Buene and Audun Kollstand won with their lamp “Lull”.

“It was terrific fun” says Varmo, which as the other two lives in Fredrikstad.

The winners were published at the Gift & interiordesign fair earlier today. Norwegian industrial designers is behind the competition. The winners were awareded 15.000 NOK ~ 2500 USD.

Worked alot:
“That we won the showprice was great fun. There was also appointed a winner by the expert committee, but those the fact that those that are going to sell products like these believe in our product is even better” says Varmo.

They have worked six months on their procject, and hope now that they will be able to put their lamp into production.

“We have spoken with a manufactor which would discuss it further within their organization. We hope that the lamp will be available in stores some time in the future” says Varmo.

I also noticed a comment made by the creator in the same article:

“We hope to be able to share the lamp with as many as possible by putting it into production as soon as possible. However it is hard to say how long this will take, but I would guess a minimum of 1-2 years before it will become available in stores. For those that wish to be notified you can drop me an email to marianne@varmodesign.com“
