Glass lamps with a plant inside
How the idea of creating a creative lamp came about
People are moving to big cities, and many cannot afford indoor plants because there is not enough daylight in their apartments. Kiel and German studio Nui have created a series of glass lamp pots that allow city dwellers to grow indoor plants that do not require sunlight from the window..
Lamp in the interior
Features of lighting inside the lamp
Each glass vessel has its own built-in light source, so these pots with a houseplant inside can be used as a lamp in the interior. The designers themselves say the following about their work:
«We decided to create glass lamps with a plant inside that could live in rooms with no light at all, for hotels and restaurants. It does not require any care on the part of a person: no ventilation, no watering. Both LED and sunlight lamps are built into the glass vessel.
Under such conditions, plants can undergo the process of photosynthesis. Thus, a self-sufficient ecosystem is created inside the vessel in which plants can exist for several years..»

The process of making a glass lamp
Design features
The lamp has a special coating that enhances the main light. This avoids installing additional wires inside the luminaire. This is a great idea..
«Our idea helped us invent a new type of glass coating that is capable of transmitting electricity across the surface of the lamp. Therefore, the cable connecting the power supply and the LED becomes unnecessary. This technical innovation opens up new possibilities for the design of green spaces..»
Floor glass lamp
With the help of design, it turned out to be possible to combine a houseplant and a lamp into one beautiful aesthetic piece. This is perfect for those who work hard and do not have enough time to care for flowers. In addition, a plant in a glass vessel can be used as a light source..
