WAKING UP
The Loftie lamp is a bedside lamp that mimics the sun by easing your body awake each morning. Based on your set wake-up time, a soft light ascends the base of the lamp, simulating dawn — a far cry from the blaring noise of most alarms. At the end of the day, you can wind down and disconnect with the receding sunset on the lamp's base.
