# Interstellar Cloud-Inspired Lights The Nebulae Collection Replicates Dynamic Sky Illuminators By Amy Duong | Published 2018-07-12 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebulae-collection References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/nebulae-collection-ross-gardam-inspired-lighting-effects-interstellar-clouds/) & [rossgardam.au](https://rossgardam.com.au/) Ross Gardam is an Australian furniture and lighting label and its latest Nebulae collection delivers a range of lights with a unique inspiration. The latest lighting series draws influence from nature's interstellar clouds -- specifically its [dynamic layers of light effects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evening-sky). The range is comprised of a desk lamp, wall light, and a chandelier. Each illuminator falls within the balanced line of geometric machine-made structures using [fluid glass discs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/comet-pendant). With each form, the [layered glasses allow the lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caleide) to omit a diffusion that gives off a variety of textures. There is a range of ripples, bubbles, geometric patterns, and even incandescents. Gardam explains that the Nebulae definitely ties together with the Polar and Ora phenomenon, but is different due to the unique light output quality. The fluted glass still exudes a captivating motion when the light is off because diffusion bounces off the environment and glass components around it. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Home](https://www.trendhunter.com/home) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Interstellar-inspired Lighting:** The Nebulae collection reflects a trend of drawing inspiration from celestial phenomena to create unique lighting designs. - **Fluid Glass Discs:** The use of fluid glass discs in the Nebulae collection represents a growing trend in incorporating organic and dynamic elements into lighting fixtures. - **Layered Glass Textures:** The layered glasses within the Nebulae collection demonstrate a trend of using diffusion techniques to create visually captivating textures in lighting design. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Furniture and Lighting:** The Nebulae collection showcases innovative lighting designs and highlights opportunities for creative and unique furniture and lighting solutions. - **Interior Design:** The incorporation of interstellar-inspired lighting in the Nebulae collection presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the field of interior design, allowing for the creation of more immersive and dynamic spaces. - **Glass Manufacturing:** The use of fluid glass discs and layered glass textures in the Nebulae collection opens up potential disruptive innovations in glass manufacturing, enabling the production of unique and visually stimulating glass products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Geometric Industrial Desktop Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebula-lamp.md) - [Solar System-Inspired Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmooval.md) - [Cosmic-Inspired Playful Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nebula-collection.md) - [Astronomical Concept-Inspired Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/copernica.md) - [Comet-Inspired Lighting Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oort.md) - [Cosmic-Inspired Lamp Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aureole.md) - [Geometric Bar-Like Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/empyrean.md) - [Moon-Inspired Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lua.md) - [Intricate Sculptural Lighting Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-pendant-light.md)
