Moono and the Return of Physical Interaction in Lighting Design

Moono introduces a tactile sliding pendant where light shifts through touch and crafted movement.

It is built on a quiet but radical idea: that light should respond to touch, not technology. Designed by SHRE Studio in Tbilisi, Moono rethinks lighting as a physical interaction rather than a digital command. A solid wood base houses a concealed sliding mechanism that allows the illuminated panel to glide smoothly, altering brightness and direction in a single continuous gesture. Precision joinery replaces electronics, while integrated LEDs are engineered to protect the integrity of oak or walnut surfaces. The lamp transitions between a calm planar form and an extended architectural element, shaping atmosphere through movement.

Part luminaire, part spatial instrument, Moono establishes a new typology of kinetic lighting where material, motion and human engagement define the experience of light itself.
