CristaLight: the bulb is alive

We are a group of four guys: one Belgian designer and three Dutch. Two led lightning specialists and one sales &amp; logistics expert.  </p><p> </p><p>Our lamps are the product of this cooperation. Three years ago, the first lamp was designed by our initial team. We produced a bulb and several base glass prototypes, but were unable to create a satisfying led lightning system. Although we’ve to admit; our standards are extremely high!</p><p> </p><p>Then we got into touch with 2 Dutch led specialists who were able to meet our high standards. We found the perfect led! This led, combined with the 3D printed base for the led bulb, fitted just like we had in mind. The project was back on track.  </p><p> </p><p>The above leads us to this point. To KissKissBankBank. We hope you’ll love our project as much as we do and are willing to assist us in this final phase. Please have a look and, if you wish, support us. You will not regret it.</p><p> </p><p><img alt="Bulb-nostalgics-1508255247" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/459009/Bulb-nostalgics-1508255247.jpg"></p><p> </p><p>As the changing legislations and new led technologies are pushing the traditional lighting bulb into history, we had a desire to put it back into the spotlight.  </p><p> </p><p>The idea was to combine the old world with the new - in total harmony. The new world’s led light and the old world’s beautiful shapes and forms.</p><p> </p><p>After 3 years of development and searching the perfect combination of light, shape and glass, we think that we’ve finally reached our goal;</p><p> </p><p>Low efficiency terminated the conventional lighting Bulb. We would like to show the world,<strong> the Bulb is still alive!</strong></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Mignon_540px-1508151575" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458463/Mignon_540px-1508151575.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Crazy_540px-1508151599" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458464/Crazy_540px-1508151599.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="French_540px-1508151615" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458465/French_540px-1508151615.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Symphonym_540px-1508151626" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458466/SymphonyM_540px-1508151626.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Symphony_l_540px-1508151640" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458467/Symphony_L_540px-1508151640.jpg"></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="The_bulb-02_titre-1508160252" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458498/The_Bulb-02_titre-1508160252.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Origin_of_the_idea-1508255386" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/459010/Origin_of_the_idea-1508255386.jpg"></p><p> </p><p>After a new European law prohibiting the traditional wire bulb in Europe was voted, we were saddened by the idea that rapidly we will not see its shape in our homes anymore. My God, it’s there for almost 2 centuries! It’s almost a part of everybody’s family!  </p><p> </p><p>Of course, we are aware of climate changes and necessity to make more energy effective lighting. We know that the led light is the future. <strong>Our lamps are also 100% recyclable.</strong> But, our question was: is it possible to save this shape anyhow? </p><p> </p><p><img alt="Revolution-1508149938" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458456/Revolution-1508149938.jpg"></p><p> </p><p>For the first lighting bulbs the desire was to reproduce it in exact standard dimension. We wanted it classy but fun at the same time. And we think that we succeed. You'll never be bored with it!  </p><p> </p><p>All the process of thinking it, making prototypes, waiting for the perfect led lamp to be invented, 3D modeling and then 3D printing of the perfectly adapted socket for it, took us almost 3 years.  </p><p> </p><p>But today we are happy with the result. Our good old bulb will stay among us. We bring it back to life. <strong>The bulb is alive!</strong></p><p> </p><p><img alt="The_bulb-540px-1508152119" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458469/The_Bulb-540px-1508152119.jpg"></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="Shapes-1508255402" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/459011/Shapes-1508255402.jpg"></p><p>Actually, we produced prototypes for 5 bulbs. Two of them are made in cooperation with worldwide famous Belgian crystal factory <strong>Val Saint Lambert</strong> that we work together for already 7 years.  </p><p> </p><p>We have the designing projects for many more and they will be available on our new website. It will be online beginning of November 2017.</p><p> </p><p>What’s the interest of so many different bulbs? Well, our lamps are designed in the way that you can easily change the bulb and change its look as you wish so <strong>it never becomes boring</strong>.</p><p> </p><p><iframe src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fplayer.vimeo.com%2Fvideo%2F237446572&amp;dntp=1&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2F237446572&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.vimeocdn.com%2Fvideo%2F659860915_1280.jpg&amp;key=cb39d84f05d8439bbe96012f078e02b0&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=vimeo" width="540" height="304" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Collect-em-all-1508152679" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458472/Collect-em-all-1508152679.jpg"></p><p> </p><p>As our KissBanker you receive <strong>10% / 25% off </strong>during one year on our website, so that you can provide all the bulbs that you like.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="Val_st_lambert_540px-1508249130" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458955/Val_St_Lambert_540px-1508249130.jpg"></p><p> </p><p> </p><p><img alt="Technical_overview-540px-1508160588" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/458502/Technical_overview-540px-1508160588.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><img alt="Make_lamp_unique-1508255424" src="https://d3v4jsc54141g1.cloudfront.net/uploads/project_image/image/459012/Make_lamp_unique-1508255424.jpg"></p><p> </p><p><strong>Our lamps are customizable.  </strong></p><p> </p><p>Send us by mail or via our website (on line beginning of November) your photo, logo, name(s), quote, poem or any other short text.
