A floating LED light bulb has made possible by a Swedish designer Simon Morris by using magnetic designs.
The wooden base of the LED bulb uses electromagnetics that allows the 60 lumen LED bulb to float and rotate. The multifunctional base also works as a smartphone charger, and the bulb does not require additional charging.

While the LEDs luminous efficacy is only 16 lm/W, the warm white bulb with a color temperature of 2,700-3,000 K is still a stunning design.
