This great Light Cube light is created by designers Simon Anund and Kristian Nilsson from Swedish firm KONKRET FORM.

Here is some info about them from Konkret Form site:

Konkret Form is Simon Ð?nund and Kristian Nilsson, both born 1977 in Linköping 20 Swedish miles south of Stockholm.

The company was formed in 1999 and is now based in Stockholm. We worked for several years together with other artists and designers and felt that we wanted to use our knowledge to make something on our own terms. When we think of furniture we think of simple forms that can be used in many different ways. We also feel very connected to art probably because we keep on working with art projects and installations.

We think it’s very important to experiment in many different areas, otherwise we might become narrow minded which is the shortest way to death of creativity. If you look at our products you probably find them very related to art by Donald Judd, his work is а big source of inspiration. We control everything from simple prototype drawings to advanced production techniques. It’s important for us to be involved in the production process which we also find very interesting and developing.
