Entry Description

Young children spend more time looking up at the ceiling than adults. This lighting is a pendant light that children enjoy looking up at the ceiling from below. It all started when the designers of a daycare center realized that there were few lights designed from the perspective of children, so they consulted a lighting production company. Designed to allow children to enjoy colorful color effects and shapes, this product has been introduced to facilities for children as a visual accent for the space and a product that stimulates children's imagination.
