Luminous Object

This is one of my favourite projects of the entire program! This was such a great experience to get my hands on so big tools and machinery. It's amazing how one little sketch can turn into something real, as Terry would say. I was inspired by organic forms of architecture, especially rounded corners. I wanted this lamp to be minimalistic, something that can be used for a lifetime. More specifically, I wanted my luminous object to be used as a night light or a lamp on your bedside table. To achieve this goal, I used baltic birch plywood, acrylic, and a warm white light bulb.

​

I use my luminous object everyday. At night it creates the most comforting lighting while making my room golden.

From a moodboard, sketches, working in Sketchup and LayOut, to actually creating it with tools, this was a fantastic project to experience.
