WHAT LBDL STANDS FOR
LBDL is an artistic and conceptual retro-futristic lab
Steampunkish Aesthetics
LBDL is all about designing and manufacturing unique digitally handcrafted machines and sculptures with an arty and SF inspired mindset.
Love The Machine, Hate The Factory
We believe in the art residing in the process of creating an object when deep emotions are involved. That's why delivering very few pieces with extreme care and devotion will always be part of the making.
3D Mechanical Art
Our design roots lie deep into the horological world, which we admire and which inspires us tremendously. But we also have that maker culture with a tropical twist because of the DNA. LBDL is like an excentric watchmaker's little adventurous cousin.

FEATURED WORKS
MECHANICAL SEED
A mechanical egg is hatching.
This lamp mix angular and round shapes that depict a retro-futuristic hatching device. At the center you can see a little sphere with watch parts into its core with a balance wheel that can be activated via the hacking crown on top of the egg.
LADY ADA
World’s first algorithm was written by a woman : Ada Lovelace (1815 – 1852).
She was an English mathematician and writer, chiefly known for her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. Her notes on the engine include what is recognised as the first algorithm intended to be carried out by a machine. As a result, she is often regarded as the first computer programmer.
LBDL felt in love with her story decided to create a lamp in her honor
RETRO MACHINE
Retro gaming is reminder of just how addictive a simple, well-executed idea can be. Today you can re-live the experience — or indeed live it for the very first time — without having to seek out a 25-year-old cathode ray television to plug the console into.
The Retro Machine offers a wide selection of consoles systems. From the very first arcade systems to the NES, the MEGADRIVE and even 32-bit platforms, such as the Playstation. The Retro Machine also serves as a Media Center running with Kodi.
VIBE CAPSULE
An idea under a dome.
The aim of the first Vibe Capsule created by LBDL is to capture an emotion into a long lasting intemporal object. We tried to encapsulate the essence and the momentum of a growing idea into the shape of this helical glowing lamp.
You can dim the light to fit your exact mood.
VIBE CAPSULE Mk.2
No more Edison bulb, watch a 3D galaxy instead.
The aim of the first Vibe Capsule created by LBDL was to capture an emotion into a long lasting intemporal object and trying to encapsulate the essence and the momentum of a growing idea into the shape of this helical glowing lamp. The Vibe Capsule 2 was made in the continuity of this line of thinking but wants to go deeper.
It has a new bulb with a mesmerizing 3D galaxy effect that seems to freeze time. In addition there is mechanical parts inside of a little glass dome that represents our love for mechanical world with little horology parts
