Marko Vuckovic pushes past the conventions of traditional interior greenery with The Mosslamp, a sophisticated indoor lighting concept that combines both the natural and artificial world.
Vuckovic describes it as a "Green oasis enclosed inside a glass bowl," which he hopes will restore a sense of calm within the home. The bowl utilizes moss, a vegetation that has the unique ability to grow places most plants can't. The glass bowl comes equipped with a pre-formed glass shape made from recycled plastic which the moss grows over. Below the shape is an LED light which acts as a heat lamp, providing the perfect environment for moss to grow while illuminating the moss from below.
The bowl is personable, practical, easy to use and can be displayed hanging or as a surface top.
