# Metal Hanger Chandeliers The 'Light Mi' Brings Sophistication to Repurposed Materials By Meghan Young | Published 2010-07-21 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-mi References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2010/07/20/light-mi/) & [get-mi](http://www.get-mi.com) If you're looking to add some recycled class to your home, I suggest you take a quick peek at the 'Light Mi.' Fashioned in such a way so as to maintain the original [metal hanger shapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charity-hanger), with the hangers combined to form a sophisticated, [cage-like light fixture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wa-lamp), the Light Mi is a [repurposed design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/remli) that doesn't look trashy in the least. Designed by Miriam Zink, the Light Mi is actually more whimsical than anything else. Priced at €159,00, it's available at Get-Mi.com. If I was in need of a new chandelier, I would be highly tempted to purchase this one. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 25% | Activity: 43% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Repurposed Design:** Opportunity for businesses to create innovative products by up-cycling waste materials. - **Sustainable Lighting:** Growing demand for eco-friendly lighting solutions, creating an opportunity for manufacturers to create sustainable products. - **Whimsical Decor:** Increasing trend for playful and creative home decor, providing opportunity for designers to create unique and imaginative products. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Home Decor:** Businesses in the home decor industry could design and market repurposed products such as the Light Mi chandelier. - **Sustainable Manufacturing:** Companies specializing in sustainable manufacturing could create eco-friendly lighting solutions for environmentally conscious customers. - **Up-cycling:** The up-cycling industry has potential to capitalize on the trend of repurposed design by creating unique and environmentally friendly products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fishnet-Made Pendant Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/philips-mycreation-droplet-lamp.md) - [Recycled Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nytt-lys-collection.md) - [Jewel-Inspired Chandelier Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pearl-chandelier.md) - [Leather Disc Modern Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pell-chandelier.md) - [Sculptural Glass Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tamar-grande-chandelier.md) - [Metal-Glass Intuitive Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salsa-chandelier.md) - [Dynamic Hand-Blown Glass Chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaris.md) - [Ecological Dual Lampshade Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-light.md) - [Suspended Mirrored Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mirror-collection-1.md)
