Torn Lights by Billy May are designed to elegantly blend into your room.
The idea behind the design was to muddle the barrier between the room and its contents, creating the illusion that light comes from the room itself.

Hmmm… looks nice if your house looks like the one in the picture, like you’re living in 2001 A Space Odyssey. I’ve never been in a house that chic before :P
Nice, but kinda gimmicky too.

Really cool idea but it’d just annoy me after a while and I’d want to go fold it into place :P

I like the concept but it seems like you would either need a bunch of these to light the room well (or at least form me) and the fact that they are mostly flat most likely means that it isnt possible to fit a regualr sized bulb or change the bulb to your light preference. but still awesome idea. i wonder how noticable they are when turned off?

It might have been nice if the huge debt to Ingo Maurer’s Schlitz Up were to be acknowledged.

I love this idea! It’s true, that it may be a bit too dark, but as a part of lighting it will look amazing.
@ngboy
There are no bulbs but LED’s

What about the power supply? There are no wires/power cords… An LED bulb lasts 10 years so no need to change, but I don’t think they have a battery that lasts nearly long enough for this to work. That seems to be the Achilles heel to this project unless I missed something.

Wow! that image of the bedroom..
It creates this illusion that the wall is just a thin sheet that was frozen in place right before being unclipped from the ceiling.
hmm.. Yeah this is great.
the idea of making the wall seem so thing/light reminds me of “Palais Stoclet” by Josef Hoffmann..
