While computer and other high-tech companies continue to make the world a more wireless one, I never considered applying this idea to other industries until stumbling upon the Live.Anywhere lamps. If gadget and other techie device wires are expected to be wire-free, shouldn't the same be expected from our furniture pieces?

Designed by Linda Allen, the Live.Anywhere lamps do not just bring the convenience of [wireless lighting fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rechargeable-wireless-lighting), they also allow for easy and convenient [portability](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vl-45-radiohus-portable-lamp). The Live.Anywhere lamps can essentially live anywhere, hence its name.

Impressively, Allen had to invent the technology to allow the Live.Anywhere lamps to function as stand-alone lights. She redesigned the LED bulb to 7 watts, which emulates the power of a 50-watt bulb. The Live.Anywhere lamps are also [rechargeable and waterproof](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-lamp), and can reside indoors or outdoors.
