Waffli is inspired by the coincidental action of looking through a waffle and how light diffuses out from the inner squares. The Waffle-like structure is obtained by slotting planes together to form a voluminous cube where the bulb is held in the middle. The slotting of planes creates interesting light diffusion effects when light passes through the different layers. Made from recyclable polypropylene, Waffli requires no adhesive, as all the planes and the bulb are held together by slotting. The flat pieces also mean that Waffli can be flat-packed for easy transportation.
