The New Portable Lamp 'Still' by Ambientec

In an exciting announcement, Ambientec has revealed its latest creation, the portable lamp named 'Still,' which will be available at Ambientec Gallery and the official online store starting May 21, 2026. This innovative design was first showcased during the Salone del Mobile in Milan, and showcases a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern technology.

The Artistry Behind 'Still'

Building upon the aesthetics of Ambientec's long-selling model, Xtal, 'Still' captures the essence of crystal glass in its design. Its striking form incorporates a clever combination of clear and colored glass, which together create a captivating gradient of light. The unique construction involves layering two sheets of clear glass with one amber-colored layer, meticulously assembled to achieve high transparency.

The result is a luminous quality that seems to emanate softly from within. This lamp offers a dynamic display of color that subtly changes throughout the day, making it an eye-catching accessory for any environment. The craftsmanship involved in creating ‘Still’ is evident as artisans individually shape and polish each piece of glass, emphasizing the interplay of light and layer.

Release Event in Tokyo

To celebrate the launch, Ambientec Gallery Tokyo will host an event titled 'Synesthesia #03' from May 21 to June 9, 2026. This immersive experience will feature scents from the Argentine perfume laboratory FUEGUIA 1833 and musical compositions by artists like Taylor Deupree and tomcbumpz. Visitors can explore the harmonious blend of light, fragrance, and sound that bring the world of 'Still' to life.

Dynamic Light and Textures

One of the most intriguing attributes of 'Still' is the way the light interacts with the glass, creating varying effects depending on the viewer’s angle and positioning. The hues shift dramatically from an orange-brown when illuminated by natural sunlight to a deep amber reminiscent of whiskey as night falls. This variability in light makes 'Still' an enchanting presence at any time.

The Combination of Tradition and Innovation

The lamp merges expert glass-molding techniques with LED technology, producing a visual experience that transcends ordinary lighting. The craftsmanship of pure crystal glass evokes a sense of weightiness while allowing the inner light to create a cozy amber ambiance, perfect for evening relaxation.

Comparing Xtal and Still

While Xtal excels at showcasing the brilliance of clear crystal glass and its reflections, 'Still' emphasizes the beauty of light filtered through its varying glass layers. This distinction allows users to appreciate the shifts in appearance as the day transitions to dusk, making it a fascinating addition to personal spaces.
