# Minimalist Orb Illuminators The Aura Lights by Ladies and Gentlemen Studio Boast a Modern Design By Jana Pijak | Published 2014-07-16 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-lights References: [sofiliumm.wordpress](http://sofiliumm.wordpress.com/2014/06/11/aura-lights-by-ladies-gentlemen-studio/) & [ladiesandgentlemenstudio](http://ladiesandgentlemenstudio.com/) These Aura Lights by Ladies and Gentlemen Studio are "based on the elements of a light source-a bulb and it’s illumination which is highlighted by a brass ring." The Seattle-based design firm is known for creating simplistic and elegant pieces and their latest lighting fixture is no exception to this tradition. Ladies and Gentlemen Studio's Aura Light pendants embody a minimalist design aesthetic and marry clean aesthetics with function. L&G was founded by Dylan Davis and Jean Lee who are known for their experimentation with various materials. For this lighting concept, the duo worked to create a simple pendant light that makes a strong impact. The light emits bright rays and is a perfect addition to modern dining areas and living rooms in need of an accent piece. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 35% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Minimalist Lighting Design:** The trend towards minimalism in lighting fixtures presents an opportunity for innovative design in the use of alternative materials such as paper, glass, and recycled materials. - **Clean Aesthetic Fusion:** The trend towards integrating clean and simple aesthetics with functional design presents an opportunity for disruption in a wide range of industries including home decor, fashion, and automotive design. - **Simplistic Illumination:** The trend towards simplistic illumination incorporates the use of bold, geometric shapes and the innovative use of light sources such as LEDs and color-changing bulbs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Interior Design:** The minimalist design trend in lighting fixtures presents an opportunity for disruption in the interior design industry by incorporating bold shapes and alternative materials. - **Home Decor:** The trend towards clean and simple designs in lighting fixtures can be applied to other home decor products, such as furniture and accessories. - **Lighting Manufacturing:** The trend towards the use of innovative light sources presents an opportunity for innovation in product manufacturing and distribution, such as custom or made-to-order lighting solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Physics-Based Artful Light Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-collection-1.md) - [Minimally Designed Ethereal Pendants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightmass.md) - [Delicate Illusory Ceiling Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aria-light.md) - [Minimalist Mysterious Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auge-light-mini.md) - [Stunningly Minimalist Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-lighting-design.md) - [Artistic Ribbon-Like Ceiling Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-fellas-ceiling-light.md) - [Colorful Contemporary Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kori-collection.md) - [Suspended Halo Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lamplox-minimalist-floor-lamp.md) - [Moon-Inspired Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lua.md)
