Description
The RAMUN amuleto LED lamp is made of three circles. The bottom one is the base, the middle one is the brace and the top one contains the light-crown of LEDs. The shape of the circle is primary and perfect, just as perfect as the number three (trinity). This spatial composition has a mechanism that allows the light to be placed and pointed in any direction. The illuminated disk is like a halo, a magic circle that is not only functional, but highly alluring. The different colors were chosen to imbue this high-tech and perfectly ergonomic object with expressive force, in an attempt to unite imagination, technology and optical precision in poetic unison. When using this lamp in the dark, one has the feeling of being in the company of a playful object that is not merely useful, but like a magic little friend who protects you, similar to a cheerful robot, a good-luck charm.
