Employing LED technology is not just a new trend in the design lamp field but an actual commitment dating back to 2009, when governments across the world passed measures to phase out incandescent & filament light bulbs in favour of more energy-efficient lighting alternatives. Over the last 6 years the LED alternative has proved to be the only successful option for the world’s modern green approach. Modernity is in fact the key factor of today’s project, designed by a revolutionary brand that decided to be the first independent design label to produce the world’s first designer LED bulb. Buster + Punch are a London-born design label: started in a garage in East London, the brand has now two offices, one in Great Britain’s capital and the other one in Stockholm. Inspired by London’s fashion, music and sub-culture scenes, the label’s work is characterized by boldness and elegance, as proved by its LED Buster Bulbs.

The main aims of the project were make LED sexy and create a more useful light bulb that would give off both an ambient warm glow and a focused spot light - something never achieved by a single light bulb before. With a teardrop shape inspired by Edison bulbs and a resin light pipe that creates a crisp, clean quality of light, these bulbs – available in gold, smoke and crystal – are designed down to the details to be actual design items beside their crucial function. Thanks to the E27 base, they can be used as a direct replacement for standard screw-thread incandescent bulbs, consuming up to 95% less than a ordinary bulb. With as many as 10,000 hours of life and a price below 40 pounds, Buster Bulbs please your taste, your wallet and the environment.
