Regarding Phantom Integrated Lamp
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.
