The maker of the Bi Light recognizes that different sources of illumination have the power to create different atmospheric effects. In order to offer a light fixture with the potential to cater to divergent domestic moods, Margaux Béja has created a table lamp that presents two possible sources.

With beautiful [tinted glass bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tuloa) crafted by Matteo Gonet, the Bi Light is composed of [two distinctive parts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luno-lamp). The upper portion contains a [short three-wicked candle](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magma-lamp) and the lower chamber has little LED lights installed. The two are kept separate with a central wooden disk and a fine electrical cord escapes from the back. The Bi Light can emit a warm or a cool ambiance for you, or even both in combination.
