CRYSTAL features hundreds of crystals of light which brighten up when touched. Through its futuristic design, it creates endless potential for play. Each Crystal contains LEDs that are wirelessly charged via a magnetic floor. Once visitors start adding, moving or sharing Crystals, the status of crystals changes from excited to bored, varying its brightness and frequency.
