Abstract: The invention refers to a light assembly (1, 100) for a vehicle design element, the assembly including: a light guide (20, 120, 220), the light guide (20, 120, 220) including a plurality of light receiving surfaces (23, 23a, 123); and a plurality of light sources (131), preferably in form of light emitting diodes (LEDs) on a circuit board (30, 130), the light sources (131) being arranged adjacent to and directed towards respective light receiving surfaces (23, 23a, 123); characterized in that the light guide (20, 120, 220) is shaped to define an annular base (21, 121) lying in a first plane and at least one circumferential flange or cylinder (24, 24a, 25, 25a, 124, 125) disposed generally orthogonal, or inwardly or outwardly splayed to the first plane, the flange or cylinder (24, 24a, 25, 25a, 124, 125) extending away from the annular base (21, 121) towards a viewable annular light exit (26, 26a, 27, 27a, 126, 127), the base (21, 121) including a plurality of shaped elements, in particular in form of disconnections, recesses, holes or wedge-shaped protrusions (22, 122), extending away from the first plane, each shaped element defining one of the light receiving surfaces (23, 23a, 123) for receiving incident light from a respective adjacent light source (131), wherein a plurality of the light receiving surfaces (23, 23a, 123) are orientated substantially transverse to the base (21, 121). In addition, a vehicle design element with such a light assembly is provided.
