About Hypnoss Hypnos Vloerlamp

"'Wie Vespa ry, eet appels' (Chi Vespa mangia le mele)—'n 1970's Vespa-slagspreuk wat verwys na die verbode vrug—vier nuuskierigheid en rebellie. Die Hypnos Vloerlamp is gebore uit herwinne Italiaanse Vespa-onderdele, wat beweging in lig transformeer. Dit bewaar die oorspronklike stuurwiel en kilometerteller, wat die kilometers dra wat eens gereis is. Wat eens die pad huis toe gewys het, verlig hierdie motorfiets dit nou—en laat beweging herleef deur verligting."

Production Technology: Hypnoss floor lamp is built up in 3 parts. The first one is a refurbished steering wheel of the scrap motorcycle with a long-lived odometer and all-new plastics as the main and the shining part. Its wiring remapped for turning on lamp and odometer's lights by its original switch.
The second and centric metal part is inspired by the outlines of the original steering wheel and tripod joints, made by the CNC milling method.
The tripod is the third part made from high-grade beech wood to fit better in every home as a piece of furniture.
Design Challenge: As the steering wheels are from a scarp motorcycle, it was a challenge to refurbish it and do not erase its memory. The main steel body and the odometer were selected to represent its identity and its memory. The wiring changed to turn on floor lamp by original motor lamp switch powered by local mains electricity. The main steel part has been sandblasted and painted new. Working with different specialties like a mechanic, sandblasting, car painter, electrition, CNC milling, and carpentry was the big challenge and also the exciting part of the project.
Research: The intention from the beginning was to extend the life of the thing that lived with us. As people spend significant time changing their place in cities, they live with automobiles and motorcycles and they affect the people's lifestyle. we focused on the most stylish motorcycle that in each decade has different characteristics and belongs to a different caste. The project focused on personas that had a memory with them and designed their relation with the floor-lamp. Each product has a book and an identity card that contains photos and illustrations of these relations to introduce itself to the new owner.
Inspiration: "chi Vespa mangia le mele";Who rides a Vespa eats apple. This sentence, a reference to the forbidden tree in biblical scriptures, was part of Vespa's advertising campaign in the 70s. Here eating an apple is a metaphorical indication of doing away with societal conventions and their ensuing chains: Man was tempted, ate an apple, and was expelled from the garden of Eden.
Eating an apple is taboo, thus Vespa bikes were for all those who wanted to break the boundaries of the system and librate
Project Duration: The project started in the first quarter of 2019
Operation Flow: Hypnoss works as stand lighting and you can turn it on by original motorcycle electric switch on the steering wheel.
it can be adjusted in different levels and also rotated on the centric part
