# Rippling Aquatic Light Fixtures The 'Pulse' Lights Mimic the Appearance of Movement on Water By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2023-04-06 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pulse-lights References: [homecrux](https://www.homecrux.com/pulse-lamp-collection-mimics-water-ripples-in-plaster/194298/) & [pierrecharrie](http://www.pierrecharrie.com/pulse/)  The 'Pulse' lights are a [decorative range of illuminators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chant) designed by Pierre Charrie that showcase a naturalistic aesthetic to incorporate a touch of visual movement into a space. The lamps are crafted using plaster of Paris and show off a series of [ripples and divots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cairn-lamp) that could call to mind the appearance of movement on water. The lamps come in [wall and suspension models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lp-lamp), which are paired with brass accents for a touch of style and diffuse the light across the finish to further highlight the texture. The lights will be showcased at Salone del Mobile 2023. Charrie spoke on the process behind the 'Pulse' lights saying, "To make Pulse, I repeated an experiment in which I had used electromagnets as if they were musical instruments; then I recreated the phenomenon by using a parametric modeling software where the digital files helped me to make the molds for the lamps.” Image Credit: Radar Interior ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 97% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 15% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Naturalistic Lighting:** Opportunity for innovation in using materials and shapes that mimic nature to create unique lighting fixtures. - **Textured Lighting:** Opportunity for innovation in using plaster and other textured materials to create fixtures that emit unique patterns of light. - **Interactive Lighting:** Opportunity for innovation in creating interactive lighting designs that respond to touch or movement, similar to the appearance of water ripples. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Interior Design:** Creating unique lighting fixtures using natural materials and textures could differentiate products in the interior design market. - **Hospitality:** Innovative lighting fixtures that mimic natural movement could create unique and memorable experiences for guests in hotels and restaurants. - **Event Planning:** Interactive lighting designs that respond to touch or movement could create engaging and unique environments for events and exhibitions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Water Movement-Inspired Lights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripple-light.md) - [Poetic Rippling Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yurameki.md) - [Synergy-Inspired Lighting Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/doppler-series.md) - [Emotional Light Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miror-collection.md) - [Geometric-Shaped Wall Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/impulse-wall-light.md) - [Delicate Lighting Collection Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delicate-lighting.md) - [Sculptural Acoustic Lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/echoes-of-the-deep.md) - [Glowing Tubular Light Fixtures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/array-lighting.md) - [Dripping Faucet-Inspired Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-light-fixture.md)
