DESIGN NAME: the Light in the Bubble
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Lamp
INSPIRATION: Edison filament bulb
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The light in the bubble is a modern light bulb in memory of the Edison's filament bulb light.
It's a led light source fitted inside a plexiglas sheet, cutted by laser with a light's bulb shape.
The bulb is transparent, but when you turn on the light, you can see the filament and the bulb shape.
It can be used like pendent light or in replacing a traditional bulb.
OPERATION / FLOW / INTERACTION: it's transparent when the light is off, when you turn on the light you can see the filament and the bulb, in memory of the old Edison bulb.
PROJECT DURATION AND LOCATION: started on may 2013
ended on december 2013
NEW YORK ICFF 2014
FITS BEST INTO CATEGORY: Lighting Products and Fixtures Design
|
PRODUCTION / REALIZATION TECHNOLOGY: led and PMMA (plexiglas)
SPECIFICATIONS / TECHNICAL PROPERTIES: light : 200 mm X 150mm X 10 mm
pakage : 245 mm x 175 mm x55 mm
TAGS: bulb, pendel, light source, led lamp, led ceiling
RESEARCH ABSTRACT: This product shows many effects of quantum physics at the same time.
the light propagates in the crystal that appears transparent, diffracts and reflects on the edges.
The visual effect is to have a transparent body when it is off, if you turn on the light materializes the ghost of the Edison light bulb filament.
CHALLENGE: I was make a new design, easy, pure, like a light bulb but with the contemporaney technologies
