L3: Light Controlled by Playing with a Magnetic Sphere
L 3 is a light object that is controlled by playing with a metal sphere and magnetic fields.
Design Team
r l o n - Designers
The Berlin design studio r l o n creates objects and installations characterized by minimal aesthetics, playful interactions and poetic motions. Our works arise out of a particular interest in meta physics, spatial cognition and experiments with materials and processes.
L3 provides a very playful interaction, seducing us to touch and sense it on an almost intimate level.
It is controlled just by placing a metal sphere in different magnetic fields on its surface. Representing the energy source of the system, the smooth and reflecting sphere with it's confident weight invites us to play with it and feel the gravity towards the center of the light ring.
Both illuminant and interface thereby become protagonists of a geometric staging.

Reader Submitted: Revolve: The Wheel in Foldable Form
Revolve was invented and designed by Andrea Mocellin with the aim to be the first modular wheel, which in turn will open new frontiers for the present and future of foldable vehicles. Moving is a challenge between time and space. It was in the past, it is in the present and even more so in the future.
