Playful and captivating, Japanese designer Kouichi Okamoto's LED balloon lamp is one seriously cool way to switch up (or enhance) your home's lighting scheme. And the magical, eye-catching concept couldn't be easier to install. Each kit comprises two standard rubber balloons, a high-intensity LED light attached to a hook that fits into the base of the balloon, and two lithium-ion watch batteries for over 100 hours of lumination.
Hang them on an outdoors porch during warmer months, or forgo the dimmer switch and simply use these at your next dinner party for a starry-night effect.
Currently available at uncommongoods.com ($45 for two balloons and two batteries).
