This lighting object is inspired by stacked pebbles, symbolizing the balance we seek in everyday life.
It connects with a mobile app through Bluetooth, and as the user watches short videos like Reels or Shorts, the light gradually dims.
The brightness of the space becomes a gentle reflection of the user’s habits—each moment of scrolling turning the room slightly darker.
When the light fades, the user becomes more aware of time, silence, and the need for rest.
It is not about restriction, but awareness—encouraging reflection through subtle change.
At the end of the day, the MagSafe wireless charging feature transforms a common routine into a meaningful ritual.
Placing the phone on top of the light feels like setting the last pebble—a simple act that restores calm and balance before sleep.
Through its soft form and responsive light, this object harmonizes nature’s irregularity with human order, inviting users to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with their inner rhythm.
