Éléonore Delisse designed a light that rebalances our daily cycle. She created this light as a part of her design academy Eindhoven graduation project. A dichroic glass rotates alongside a lamp to project the colours we need to rebalance our circadian rhythm. Our natural body clocks are programmed to respond to light. In some people, dropping light levels in autumn and winter disrupt our internal clock, or circadian rhythm, setting off a depression called Seasonal Affective Disorder. The lamp is set to generate a blue hue in the mornings, to lessen melatonin production and stimulate wakefulness. In the evenings a warm amber glow sets off melatonin production and makes you drowsy. It's a perfect solution to get rid of the winter blues.
