Japanese designers presented lights that showcased traditional craft, were created from delicate materials, and are made for small homes, at Designart Tokyo. Dezeen's design editor Augusta Pownall picks five of the most interesting.
Many design studios showing lighting at Designart Tokyo, which took place 19 - 28 October 2018, drew on Japanese architectural forms such as shoji (translucent paper room dividers), and craft techniques such as gold foil metalworking.
Several other designers created lights that could be easily moved to cast light where needed in space-strapped Japanese homes.
Our pick of the five best lights on show are below:

Night book and light shelf, by Akii Design Lab
Akii is a product design studio consisting of designers Naoaki Iwamatsu and Takeaski Maeda. The duo showcased two products that use LED lights to solve specific problems, finding a particular book on a dark bookshelf and a light that can double up as a storage unit where space is a premium, as it is in Japanese homes. Light shelf is 30 centimetres wide, the width of an A5 book, and made from millimetre thick steel plate, hand-bent to form a square. Small items can be stored in the hollow space. Night book is the size of a regular volume with a spine that looks like that of a book when standing on a shelf. When pulled out of its casing, it lights up the surrounding space with a soft glow.
