Created by Australian designer Nick Rennie, Sway is a mobile and chargeable light with a minimalist look. Available from Made By Pen, the Sway floor lamp is named for the signature swaying motion it makes when the light is moved. Its weighted base prevents it from falling over, producing a pendulum-mimicking motion. The cordless floor lamp can be placed anywhere regardless of proximity to electrical outlets and has an [interactive element](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangent-lamp) to it. The designer explains "the result is a [minimalist, nomadic floor lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nomad-3) that is playful and could not be knocked over." The lighting solution features an LED light, a steel and carbon rod with silicone materials. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 25% | 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) > [Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/furniture) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Cordless Lighting:** The trend of cordless lighting presents opportunities for innovative designs that offer portability and freedom of placement. - **Minimalist Design:** The trend of minimalist design in lighting opens up possibilities for sleek and unobtrusive light fixtures that blend seamlessly into any environment. - **Interactive Lighting:** The trend of interactive lighting allows for engaging and customizable experiences, enhancing the user's interaction with their lighting fixtures. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Lighting:** The lighting industry can capitalize on the trend of cordless lighting by developing innovative and functional cordless light fixtures. - **Furniture:** The furniture industry can incorporate cordless lighting solutions into their designs, providing customers with versatile and movable lighting options. - **Interior Design:** The interior design industry can leverage the trend of minimalist design and interactive lighting to create captivating and immersive lighting experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Classic Cordless Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poldina-classic-lamp.md) - [Portable Wireless Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fsl-wireless.md) - [Versatile Torch-Style Lighting Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cono.md) - [Sculptural Connected Floor Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-led-floor-lamp.md) - [Wireless Lighting Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cordless-collection.md) - [Wireless Lamp Renditions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-dixon-portable.md) - [Ultra-Flexible Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anywhereuse-lamp.md) - [Portable Table Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/parcel-portable-lamp.md) - [Sleek Rechargeable Marbled Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solid-table-light.md)
