# Shape-Shifting Lumber Lamps The D.k Light is Adaptable to Your Desired Arrangement By Amelia Roblin | Published 2011-07-23 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/d-k-light References: [industrialdesignserved](http://www.industrialdesignserved.com/gallery/dk-light/1086021) A light fixture can generally be considered a table lamp, a standing lamp or perhaps a [pendant lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kala-lamp), but seldom a combination of these. The D.k Light, however, boasts the capacity to conform to a variety of such strict classifications. [Five separate wooden segments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flatpack-timber-lamp) threaded with a cable allow it accomplish this, encouraging flexibility in form determined by the tautness of the cord. When fixed tightly, the rectangular spine stands tall and rigid, fastened firmly in place by a vice attached to a table. A subtle loosening of the wire allows the straight structure to sag, creating a delicate curve despite the fragmented column. Simon Evrard's [adaptable design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ovo-lamp) for the D.k Light even allows the user to space the blocks out sparsely, using simply the end as a sort of flashlight. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Adaptable Lighting Fixtures:** Flexible light fixtures that can conform to various classifications are in demand. - **Segmented Design:** Segmented designs are increasing in popularity for their flexibility and adaptability. - **Customizable Home Decor:** Consumers are looking for home decor items that can be personalized to their individual style and needs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Interior Design:** The interior design industry can capitalize on the trend of adaptable and personalized home decor products like the D.k Light. - **Lighting:** The lighting industry can develop more innovative and versatile light fixtures using segmented designs and customizable features like the D.k Light. - **Furniture:** Furniture companies can incorporate segmented designs and customizable features in their products to meet the demand for flexible and adaptable home decor items like the D.k Light. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Foldable Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-folding-lamp.md) - [Sculptural Wooden Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp.md) - [Customizable Magnetic Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-magnetic-lamp.md) - [Ultra-Flexible Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anywhereuse-lamp.md) - [Infinitely Expandable Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cube-one-table-lamp.md) - [Illusory Multidimensional Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drop-light.md) - [Interconnecting Component Table Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/customizable-table-lamp.md) - [Modular Table Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aplat.md) - [Conical Multifunctional Lamp Units](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-table-light.md)
