product design project: Matericubo
prof. Gianpietro Gai
Starting by a 8cm x 8cm cube, I had a material ty-pology assigned.Studying the qualities if, in my case, metal, I had to develop an object with an intelligent function telated to the material characteristics.So I chose the flexibility and strength of metal and the capability to reflect the light, and I made a lamp.The closed lamp is a metal cube 8x8 and it serves as packaging itself, as the lightbulb and the cable are pre-packed inside.As one opens it, the lamp transform itself, like a flower, and the user can decide the best form.The lamp can be hanged from the ceiling, on the wall, or just put on the table.The light reflection can also be moderated: the user can decide to let more light out or to close the lamp and let less light come out.Description
