FFBA's Luxblade, designed by Menghai Xia and team, has been honored with the Iron A' Lighting Products and Fixtures Design Award 2025, recognizing its breakthrough approach to interactive, tangible lighting that merges sci-fi inspiration with smart home technology. Developed in Savannah, GA and Beijing, Luxblade redefines how users experience and control light in modern living spaces.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Luxblade, the latest creation from the FFBA design studio led by Menghai Xia, has captured the Iron A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures category for 2025. This innovative smart lamp stands out for transforming light from an intangible element into a physical, interactive experience. Inspired by the idea of "grabbing" light, Luxblade allows users to hold, carry, and personalize their lighting environment, making illumination both portable and emotionally engaging.
Unlike traditional lamps, Luxblade features a cylindrical lightbulb-The Blade-without a screw-in mechanism. Advanced internal components, including control chips, a rechargeable battery, and LED panels, are seamlessly integrated within a durable acrylic shell. The lamp's base and foundation domes, crafted from anodized aluminum, provide stability and a premium feel. Touch-sensitive controls on The Blade enable users to adjust light direction with circular gestures and fine-tune brightness with vertical swipes, while the detachable design ensures portability and continuous lighting through a guiding dock and base light.
Developed through in-house CAD modeling and 3D printing, Luxblade's engineering incorporates capacitive touch sensors and a magnetic charging base for effortless docking. The lamp is fully compatible with Apple HomeKit, allowing users to control lighting via smart devices or manual touch. Extensive research and user feedback shaped the product's sci-fi-inspired aesthetics and intuitive functionality, overcoming challenges in integrating advanced technology within a sleek, user-friendly form. The result is a versatile lighting solution that merges futuristic design with everyday practicality, earning international recognition for its innovation and emotional appeal.
