"I was out for dinner with my mom, and she was struggling to read the menu in the dark," says Canadian industrial designer Andrew Ferrier, of MK-11 Studio. She pulled out her phone to use the flashlight feature, as many of us have had to do; Ferrier then observed another table using the Magnifier app to read their bill. "That bright light can disrupt the atmosphere for everyone around you." So I designed Loupe Light, a table lamp of stacked magnetic light rings. Lift any ring off and it becomes a lit magnifier, so guests can read the menu or bill discreetly and phones stay off the table. - A raised lens glides across the menu without scratching it and maintains focus. - Add or remove rings to suit different table sizes. - Cordless, sealed, and inductively charged, making it easy for staff to wipe down between seatings. Loupe Light is an MK-II Studio concept. Brands and restaurant groups, let's bring it to life.
