The [Cocoon Lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocoon-coffee-table) adds a comforting, protective aesthetic to living spaces. Although it is inspired by nature, this enveloping design also has a [sci-fi vibe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacetime-transformation-lamp) that makes it look more futuristic than organic. Nevertheless, the light acts like an insect cradled within a white cocoon, which happens to be the base of the lamp itself.

Designed by Voxel Studio, the Cocoon Lamp's sculptural structure was created using [3D printing technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haibu). Made out of VeroWhite and TangoBlackPlus digital materials, the design is unique and mesmerizing. The mesh-like bulb design casts a warm honeycomb pattern on walls, which gives the Cocoon Lamp an artistic presence.

The Cocoon Lamp's fluid form may defy geometry, but nothing is ever that structured in nature.
