Acorn Light System Lamps

Acorn Light System Lamps is an innovative and sustainable lighting system that revolutionizes the traditional concept of interior illumination through its dual-functionality design. Developed by Bulgarian designer Desislava Sredkova, this sophisticated lighting solution comprises a collection of wall-mounted, ceiling, freestanding, and table-top lamps, each featuring a distinctive mirror-backed surface that serves two primary purposes. During daylight hours, the mirrors strategically capture and redirect natural sunlight deeper into interior spaces, effectively enhancing ambient lighting without consuming electricity. In nighttime operation, the system can either function as conventional lighting fixtures or amplify a single ceiling-mounted light source through its reflective properties, promoting energy efficiency. The system's modular design incorporates three fundamental shade shapes - circular, oval, and leaf-like forms - available in varying sizes, which can be combined to create customized configurations. Each shade component is engineered with rotational capability around its axis, allowing precise adjustment for optimal light capture and distribution. The design, which earned recognition at the A' Design Award competition, addresses contemporary challenges in both historic buildings with limited natural light exposure and modern spaces with deep floor plans. The system's technical specifications accommodate substantial spatial coverage, with arranged dimensions of 850mm in width, 850mm in depth, and 1750mm in height, while maintaining practical storage dimensions when disassembled. The implementation of LED-lit panels combined with acrylic mirrors demonstrates a harmonious fusion of modern technology with sustainable design principles, offering an elegant solution to reduce artificial lighting dependency and promote energy conservation in residential and commercial environments.
