Studio Thier and Van Daalen's Bloom Wall Lights Explore Color

The Bloom wall lights use hand-blown glass to create shallow circular forms that glow softly when illuminated. Studio Thier and van Daalen developed the series as an experiment in how light and color interact, producing discs that feel like petals catching sunlight. Each piece is designed to shift tone and intensity depending on angle, grouping, and wall placement.

The lights are all crafted in Leerdam, Netherlands, and the works embrace variations in hue and transparency that highlight the imperfections of glassblowing. When mounted together, the lights form compositions that recall abstract bouquets, layering reflection and shadow across interiors. Bloom demonstrates how a functional object can take on poetic qualities, offering designers and homeowners a way to bring atmosphere, artistry, and a gentle play of color into everyday spaces.
