Although each creation boasts a different shape and are uniquely solid rather than liquid, they are reminiscent of [lava lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foscarini-lava-lamps), which were particularly popular throughout the late ‘60s and early ‘70s. Created by Paris-based design studio Le Creative Sweatshop, the Light & Jelly lamp series was shot by still-life photographer Fabrice Fouillet. The gelatin’s clean lines and gradation of hues give each piece a vintage geometric appeal. The designs also have an eerie feeling since the jelly appears to be swallowing the static objects whole. Abstract, colorful and imaginative, the Light & Jelly lamp series is perfect for both eclectic and minimalist homes. It will bring character to both. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 72% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Psychedelic Lighting:** The trend towards psychedelic lighting presents an opportunity for companies to create bold, unique lamps that serve as both a functional light source and an eye-catching piece of decor. - **Retro-futuristic Aesthetics:** The popularity of retro-futuristic aesthetics opens up possibilities for designers to create products that combine vintage elements with futuristic technology or materials. - **Clean Geometric Designs:** Clean geometric designs are becoming increasingly popular, allowing for companies to create products that are visually striking while maintaining a minimalist, modern aesthetic. ### Where This Applies - **Home Decor:** Home decor companies can tap into the psychedelic lighting trend by creating unique, bold lamps that serve as both a functional light source and a statement piece of decor. - **Furniture Design:** Furniture designers can incorporate retro-futuristic aesthetics into their designs to create unique, eye-catching pieces that combine vintage elements with modern materials or technology. - **Industrial Design:** Industrial designers can create clean, geometric designs that are visually striking and can be applied to a variety of products, from lighting to furniture to technology. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ice Cream-Resembling Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-serve-lamp.md) - [Retro Jelly Mold-Inspired Mirrors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jelly-mirror.md) - [Colorful 3D-Printed Portable Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-soft-serve-lamp.md) - [Colorful Gelatin Dessert-Inspired Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-jelly-collection.md) - [Candy-Like Colorful Glass Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gele-series.md) - [Bulbous Whimsical Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neotenic.md) - [Molten Glass Lighting Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/foscarini-1.md) - [Gelato-Inspired Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelato-lamp.md) - [Sci-Fi-Inspired Dynamic Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacetime-transformation-lamp.md)
