Although in a way it is, the material it is made out of makes it stand out in an unusual way. Fashioned out of silicone, the light fixture is rubbery and [malleable](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blow-lamp), which ensures that it is even more versatile than some of the run-of-the-mill lamps out there. Designed for Italian manufacturer Lombardo, Bell by Italo Belussi is not just fun to touch. As the designer reveals, "The evocative chromatic effects, due to the special treatment of the silicone compound, create a unique ambiance." Great for both indoor and outdoor use, Bell by Italo Belussi can evoke anything from a [soft magical atmosphere](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lamp) to a bright festive environment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.6/10 - Popularity: 6% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Malleable Lighting:** Opportunity for creating light fixtures with soft and flexible materials, allowing for unique and customizable designs. - **Versatile Lamps:** Potential for lamps that can be used both indoors and outdoors, providing flexibility in lighting options for various environments. - **Chromatic Effects:** Emerging trend of using special treatments and materials to create unique lighting effects and ambiance. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Lighting Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in the design and manufacturing of light fixtures that incorporate malleable and versatile materials. - **Interior Design:** Opportunities for incorporating innovative lighting solutions that can create different atmospheres and enhance the overall aesthetic of spaces. - **Outdoor Lighting:** Potential for developing lighting products that are suitable for outdoor use and can create captivating lighting experiences for various outdoor environments. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Warm LED Artful Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bellboy-table-lamp.md) - [Translucent Bulbous Pendant Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-glow-light.md) - [Bold Anniversary Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/serpente-lamp.md) - [Exquisite Textured Pendant Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pendant-lamp1.md) - [Balloon-Like Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-blown.md) - [Inflatable Colorful Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squeeze-inflatable-lamp.md) - [Soft Comfort Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-lamp.md) - [Whimsical Glass Bubbled Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peeka.md) - [Perforated LED Table Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lume.md)
