HORIZON
by Didi NG Wing Yin
CONCEPT STATEMENT:
Inspired by a temporary astronomical event - Eclipse, which brings a miracle and beautiful moment to the earth. To express the phenomenon, the luminary sculpture for indoor space runs with a simple mechanism. The lampshade can be rotated to control the direction of the light. The reflected light creates smooth shadows that appear along the arc both on the lamp body and on the back wall. It creates a shadow that corresponds to an eclipse, resulting in a functional and decorative floor lamp for everyday use. The design challenges come with the metal structure hidden inside the lower body to make sure it stands perpendicular. Another major challenge is showing the optimum and comfortable light source to look at and creating the best shadow effects which can enhance the spatial vibe. Resulting in using the geometric elements and plain white color to create this subtle sculptural lighting fixture.
PROJECT SPECS:
The floor lamp is made of 1mm powder-coated steel. The dimension is W320*D320*H1780. The light source is using LED strip profile with a PMMA diffuser. The manufacturing process complies with metal welding and folding and waterjet cutting.
