Constantin Bolimond designs home decor that is as playful as they are practical. In the case of 'MU – Packing for Light,' he managed to merge packaging and lighting in a unique way. The overall design might look like a traditional milk bottle, but it isn't meant to hold any sort of liquid. Instead, Constantin Bolimond created a [lighted vessel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drape-light) that could easily be mistaken for a [tea light holder](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-soft-solids).

To turn it on, a person need only turn the corkscrew as though loosening it to pour milk. Unexpected and engaging, Constantin Bolimond managed to create a [home decor piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-lamps-1) that brings a fun element into the home in a sleek and simple manner. Overall, the shape subtly suggests a bottle without blatantly being one.
