Into the Clouds is an absolutely adorable light installation. Taking on the form of cartoonish clouds, each fixture sports an animated face that many will find irresistibly cheerful. No one would be able to be in a bad mood around these cute [pendant lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-glow-light).

Designed for Fox Network’s ADHD (Animation Domination High Def) programming block by [FriendsWithYou](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inferno), an art collective founded by Samuel Borkson and Arturo Sandoval III, the Into the Clouds light installation reflects the design studio's simple messages of magic, luck and friendship. According to Psfk, they hang "from the space’s 26-foot high ceiling, each of the five clouds measure 2.5 feet and are placed at different elevations, following the viewer as they go up and down the staircase."
