# Mishmash Light Fixtures UXUS' LIGHT_NESS Lamp Looks Craftily Slapped Together By Meghan Young | Published 2011-11-30 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-ness-lamp References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/light_ness-by-uxus/) & [uxus](http://www.uxus.com/work/lightness) The LIGHT_NESS Lamp has a crafty charm about it that makes it look as though it were randomly slapped together more for necessity that anything else. The reason it looks like a mishmash of different materials is because it actually is. The LIGHT_NESS Lamp is essentially an interactive project that allows the owner to create it. Conceived by Amsterdam-based company UXUS, the LIGHT_NESS Lamp is comprised of a [simple wooden frame](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arc-lamp), neon orange tape and a black and white cord. Although it might not seem like it, the design possibilities are endless with the frame, neon orange tape and a cord. The orange tape itself can create [various patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-delta-lamp), making each lamp as unique as the next. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.8/10 - Popularity: 11% | Activity: 5% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## 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 - **Interactive Lamp Design:** Opportunity for creating customizable and unique light fixtures through interactive design. - **Crafty Materials Combination:** Potential for creating aesthetically pleasing products by combining seemingly random materials. - **Endless Design Possibilities:** Innovation in allowing users to explore countless design variations for their light fixtures. ### Where This Applies - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for incorporating customizable lighting options into interior design projects. - **Home Decor:** Potential for introducing unique and personalized light fixtures to the home decor industry. - **Product Design:** Innovation opportunity in combining unconventional materials to create visually appealing products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Suspended Halo Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lamplox-minimalist-floor-lamp.md) - [Artistic Magnetic Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scacco-matto-lamp.md) - [Flatpack Lighting Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allen-key-lamp.md) - [Organically Shaped Shadow Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lamp.md) - [Customizable Magnetic Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-magnetic-lamp.md) - [Unconventional Modular Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luna-kaleido-series.md) - [Infinitely Expandable Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cube-one-table-lamp.md) - [Interactive Lamp Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tangent-lamp.md) - [Playful Brick-Born Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-lamps-1.md)
