Story
Dressing the bulb
Atlas takes the nudity of a common bulb as its starting point. A transparent suit envelops the bulb and follows its outline, which also gives the lamp the added benefit of lightness.
Made to hold one bulb
The lamp has been designed to accommodate the bulb that comes with it, so the bulb does not protrude from the diffuser.
