# Glowing Pearl Lights The City Lamp by Anna Neklesa Looks Like a Building in the Night By Meghan Young | Published 2010-10-20 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/city-lamp References: [thedesignblog.org](http://www.thedesignblog.org/entry/the-city-lamp-by-anna-neklesa-adds-style-to-your-space/) & [annaneklesa](http://annaneklesa.com/) I'm going to hazard a guess that although the City Lamp is shaped like a [traditional lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelato-lamp), it was named so because it looks like an urban building at night. I mean, don't you think the base looks like lit windows? Designed by Anna Neklesa, the City Lamp is unique on a number of levels. Most notably, however, is its use of Dragon Pearls, which create the [window-like details](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lp-lamp). These pearls take energy from the main light source and actually [glow in the dark](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paardarshi). The effect is stunning. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 50% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 - **Urban Lighting Design:** The use of Dragon Pearls in the City Lamp presents an opportunity for innovative urban lighting designs. - **Glow-in-the-dark Technology:** The glowing effect of Dragon Pearls in the City Lamp opens up possibilities for disruptive innovations in glow-in-the-dark technology. - **Architectural Inspiration:** The resemblance of the City Lamp to an urban building at night suggests opportunities for incorporating architectural elements into lighting design. ### Who This Affects Most - **Lighting Design:** The use of Dragon Pearls in the City Lamp indicates potential for disruptions in traditional lighting design practices. - **Interior Design:** The unique aesthetic of the City Lamp based on architectural inspiration can inspire innovative approaches in interior design. - **Sustainable Lighting:** The use of energy-efficient Dragon Pearls in the City Lamp highlights a potential direction for disruptive innovations in sustainable lighting solutions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Scenic Architecture Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/architecture-inspired-table-lamp.md) - [Hand-Cast Crystal Glowing Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nola-lamp.md) - [Stone Waste Street Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pebble-street-light.md) - [Whimsical Glass Bubbled Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peeka.md) - [Mushroom-Inspired Sleek Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunar-lamp-concept.md) - [Pear-Shaped Outdoor Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outdoor-lamp1.md) - [Glowing Whimsical Storybook Lanterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fable-lantern.md) - [Hollow Candle-Like Table Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lampe.md) - [Dreamlike Bubble-Shaped Illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/airshape-lamp.md)
