London design brand Hulger has installed a chandelier made from their new Baby Plumen light bulbs in The Changing Room, a former fitting room at Dezeen Super Store.

Hulger worked with lighting designer Chieh Ting to design modular honeycomb-shaped pieces made from one-sided metallic card to reflect the squiggle of light from each bulb.

"We thought the organic shape of the bulbs would create really interesting resonances in a repeating, geometric, cellular structure, when the honeycomb surfaced as an idea," says Nicolas Roope of Hulger.

The card was laser-cut and scored, then constructed by hand to make the chandelier.
