Spot

Kovac Design Studio

Short description

When off, Spot masquerades as a playful design object. When on, it transforms into a portable sculptural light powered by a rechargeable LED bulb that provides soft yet targeted illumination. Born from the desire to create a flexible lighting solution that adapts to the user’s needs, Spot’s cordless, compact form, rechargeable nature, and curved feet reminiscent of space age design allows for an endless array of arrangements whether attached to the wall, on the shelf, or in motion.

Spot’s feet are anodized and sand blasted to a fine matte finish, while its black plastic exterior minimizes the appearance of dirt and dust that may result from significant user handling. Its materiality also allows for excellent grip while maintaining a pleasant tactile sensation, prioritizing the user’s experience. The choice to use a plastic exterior also means that Spot is technically and economically realistic to develop and market on a large scale while remaining sensitive to environmental impact.

Spot comes in recyclable packaging that reduces waste and cleverly underscores the design inspiration for the form, providing the user with a sense of enjoyment from the very moment it is first seen and brought home.
