Luke Roberts
Luke Roberts develops the world’s first smart design lamp that allows you to move the light in any direction without moving the lamp. With simple print gestures on your phone you can have bright light on the couch for reading, dimmed light on the table for dinner and colored indirect light for relaxing.
