The inspiration for DR BULB, this singular bulb equipped with glasses, originated from the character Gyro Gearloose in the DuckTales comics. It's worth noting that Gyro Gearloose had an assistant named "Filament" whose head was a light bulb, the universal symbol of a great idea.
My initial thought was straightforward: give a face to a bulb by adding glasses to it. What I hadn't anticipated was that these glasses would also serve to reduce the glare caused by the filament.
This unexpected detail, adding functionality to the object, was the tipping point that encouraged me to bring this product to market. Thus, DR BULB is not just a poetic concept; it also combines practical utility with its original charm.
