# 3D-Printed Ceramic Pendants The 'two.parts' Lighting Systems Conceal Invisible LED Bulbs By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2016-06-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceramic-pendants References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/two-parts-3d-printed-ceramic-lights/?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=webfeeds) & [api.viglink](http://api.viglink.com/api/click?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_146550764139913&key=6ab1d62aaf9dbafae96546ba3ca1b2ac&libId=ip8qlf3v0100x1tt000DA17ihyz2dugqgp&loc=http://design-milk.com/two-parts-3d-printed-ceramic-lights/?utm_source=feedly&utm_medium=webfeeds&v=1&out=http://two.parts/store/&title=two.parts) Christo Logan recently launched a dynamic collection of [3D-printed ceramic pendants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maze-lamp) titled 'two.parts.' As well as being impressive for their [sculptural forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-pendant-light), one feature that's particularly unique about the design of these lighting fixtures is that they hide invisible LED bulbs within their designs. In this way, an illusion is created that makes it seem as though the light source is coming from within the pendants themselves. While 3D printing technology was used for the creation of the 12 [geometric pendant light pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nature-inspired-pendant-light), this technique was coupled with age-old ceramic-making, which required firing and glazing. The finished designs are depicted in black and white colorways, but they are available in a number of finishes with different colors available for both the ceramics and cords. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 65% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, 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 - **3d-printed Lighting Fixtures:** Incorporating 3D printing technology into lighting fixtures creates an opportunity for customizable and unique designs. - **Invisible LED Lighting:** Integrating invisible LED bulbs into designs allows for a sleek aesthetic and highlights the importance of lighting in interior design. - **Ceramic-making Innovation:** Combining 3D printing technology with age-old ceramic-making techniques opens up possibilities for new artistic designs and functional objects beyond lighting fixtures. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Interior Design:** Incorporating unique lighting fixtures with invisible LED bulbs can set a more personalized tone to an interior space. - **3D Printing Industry:** Expanding the use of 3D printing to create functional objects, such as lighting fixtures, can drive innovation within the industry. - **Ceramics Industry:** Collaborating with 3D printing companies and incorporating newer technology into traditional techniques can modernize the ceramics industry and bring new products to market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [3D-Printed Cloud-Like Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightmass-2025-pendants.md) - [Fishnet-Made Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philips-mycreation-droplet-lamp.md) - [Encapsulated Semi-Transparent Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nested-pendant-light.md) - [3D-Printed Sustainable Pendant Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mycreation-droplet.md) - [Sculptural 3d-Printed Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/souffl-lamp.md) - [3D-Printed Suspended Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haibu.md) - [Minimally Designed Ethereal Pendants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightmass.md) - [Digitally Handmade Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digitally-handmade.md) - [Minimalist 3D-Printed Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3dprinted-lamp1.md)
