Eclips: The Innovative Plug-In Lamp for Curtains

Transforming Curtains into Lighting Systems

Eclips, designed by Andrea Cingoli, revolutionizes the way we think about lighting in our homes. By combining the functionality of a clip with the elegance of a hanging lamp, Eclips transforms our curtains into ambient lighting systems, offering a unique and innovative solution for interior design.

Eclips is the first plug-in lamp specifically designed for curtains and texture supports. Its main feature is its ability to work as a clip, attaching seamlessly to our curtains and transforming them into lighting fixtures. The lamp is equipped with two dimmable RGB LED strips, providing adjustable and customizable lighting options. What sets Eclips apart is its ability to function without producing heat, thanks to the LED system. This not only ensures safety but also allows for a longer lifespan of the lamp.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Eclips is its versatility. Each curtain can become a support for one or more devices, creating interesting light effects based on the shade and texture of the fabric it is attached to. This opens up a world of possibilities for creating unique and dynamic lighting compositions in any space.

Designed with both functionality and aesthetics in mind, Eclips offers a new way to appreciate and enhance the fabric it is attached to. The lamp's sleek design, made from brushed aluminum and steel, adds a touch of sophistication to any interior. Additionally, Eclips can be easily assembled with other lamps to create different furnishing solutions, allowing for greater flexibility and creativity in home or business settings.

Controlling Eclips is a breeze with its accompanying app. Users can adjust the intensity, color, and power of the lighting, creating the perfect ambiance for any occasion. Whether it's a cozy evening at home or a vibrant gathering with friends, Eclips ensures that the lighting is tailored to suit your needs.

The Eclips project, led by designer Andrea Cingoli, began in February 2016 and was completed in June of the same year in Teramo. Its innovative design and functionality earned it the silver medal at EPDA 2017 in the category of Illumination and Illuminated Home Decor. This recognition further solidifies Eclips as a groundbreaking design in the world of lighting.

With Eclips, Andrea Cingoli has successfully merged functionality and aesthetics, creating a design that not only enhances our living spaces but also challenges our perception of ordinary objects. By decontextualizing familiar forms and giving them new meaning, Eclips enriches our lives and adds a touch of intelligence and stimulation to our surroundings.

Experience the transformative power of Eclips and discover a new way to illuminate your space.
