Not every column needs to hide in the background.

Illuminated Columns combine structural form with integrated lighting to bring life and depth to interior spaces. Use them to anchor staircases, break up long corridors, frame hangars, or simply add a clean modern aesthetic to your station or ship.

Available sizes:

Tall (1x3x1)

Medium (1x2x1)

Short (1x1x1)

Features

Fully paintable with all Space Engineers color and texture patterns

Built-in emissive light strips that follow the block’s light color setting

Airtight construction on all faces

Scroll between sizes directly in the G-menu

Controlled via terminal just like a standard interior light (on/off, color, intensity)

Structural support. Architectural detail. Ambient lighting.

☕ Support the Ongoing Experiments If you've enjoyed this improbable engineering exercise, you're welcome to toss a few credits into the reactor core. Contributions help fund coffee, replacement keyboards damaged during prolonged negotiations with the AI over the difference between 'theoretically possible' and 'actually works, and the continued pursuit of turning perfectly sensible ideas into gloriously overengineered realities.

No pressure. Download it, enjoy it, build ridiculous things, and have fun. But if you'd like to help keep the experiment running, a tip is always appreciated. Every contribution increases the probability of future projects by an amount that is scientifically significant.* *Science has not reviewed this claim.
