The Latitude Lamp is an innovative 3D-printed light that creatively adapts its shape to suit the location it is in. The design is responsive to the consumer, allowing the look of the lamp to continuously change depending on where the owner of the piece is.

While many lamps remain the same way they looked when they were initially purchased, the Latitude Lamp provides a constant change with an altering appearance. The lamp is made using [3D-printed material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/souffl-lamp) to form a [geometric gemstone aesthetic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-drape-light) that can be used either indoors or outdoors to emit light. The lamp [harnesses energy from the sun](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-3) to power up and provide a soft ambient glow, rather than using electricity.

Depending on the urban location that the Latitude Lamp is in, it will alter its own shape to match the latitude.
