This ingenious night light from French designer Malet Thibaut comes delivered in a flat pack parcel, but don't worry, it's actually a lot of fun to build. The Delta Lamp can be assembled by stretching a series of rubber bands around its light wooden frame.
The DIY lamp kit comes complete with 60 rubber bands and five wooden components. The beauty of this DIY lamp is that you can throw out the instruction leaflet and make your own interpretation of the Delta Lamp.
You can experiment with different ways of applying the rubber bands so that the light hits the wall in your room in a series of linear patterns. The DIY Delta lamp would make a great gift for any children who like to be creative and build.
