A blue light with a wavelength of 425 to 450 nanometres is used to stimulate the plant's vegetative stage, while a red light with a wavelength of 575 to 625 nanometres promotes blossoming.

The project was conceived as a bespoke solution for one of BIG's latest projects, Area 2071, a new space in Dubai that brings together entrepreneurs, start-ups, small and medium-sized businesses, and government programs.
The Gople lamps were designed for the common areas where clusters of seating are interspersed with foliage. BIG identified the need for a versatile lamp that is able to support the growth of plants but also provide ambient and functional white lighting when needed.
