Froggie Table Lamp

Froggie

Froggie is a table lamp inspired by the double life of amphibians between land and water. The design captures the moment when a frog rises above the water surface.

Both eyes are bendable, so the eye shapes can be adjusted to different positions to create varied lighting effects. A touch sensor button is placed in each nostril, so each light can be switched on and off separately. Froggie explores biomimicry as a source of playful design.
