Lighting Products and Fixtures Design Float Illumination by Mingxi Li Float is a table lamp based on the concept of slow design. The lamp uses magnetic levitation technology, so a small float turns above the base without touching it. The user switches the light on by spinning the float, and the light goes off when the rotation stops. The direction of rotation selects warm or cool light. Float is made of polypropylene, aluminum and white oak, and is produced in three sizes. The calm and steady motion is intended to help users slow down and concentrate while studying.
