[Innovative lighting concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nekospace-orchard) continue to light up home fashions. The Matchlight by Chetan Sorab is inherently cool. The [heap of "matchsticks"](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brick-light) can be arranged in any order - or no order at all - depending on your desire. As long as the glowing, [ambient light sticks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-varmblixt-smart-lights) are touching the sole power source, all 16 lights will illuminate. Pile them up or stretch them out... this is one cool mood light!

**Implications** - Not only does this let you customize your home in any way you wish, it boasts the ability to light up your life in a completely creative way. Check out the light for yourself and you may just find yourself wanting one for your own home.
