About Donut مصباح مكتبي

"دونات" مصباح مكتبي مصمّم لغرف النوم وأركان القراءة. لا يحتوي المصباح على مفتاح تشغيل ظاهر، إذ تأتي حاضنة الضوء بهيئة قطعة الدونات لتؤدي في الوقت ذاته وظيفة وحدة التحكم. يُشغَّل المصباح بوضع اليد على الحاضنة ودفعها في اتجاه عقارب الساعة، ويؤدي الاستمرار في الدوران باتجاه عقارب الساعة إلى زيادة شدة الإضاءة، بينما يخفض الدوران عكس اتجاه عقارب الساعة شدة الإضاءة أو يُطفئ المصباح. صُنعت الطبقة الخارجية للحاضنة من نسيج الكتان الذي يلطّف الضوء ويهيّئ أجواءً دافئة. تبلغ أبعاد المصباح 15 سم طولاً و15 سم عرضاً و30 سم ارتفاعاً.

Desk lamp is the product that every family user will buy, have huge market. According to the survey, most lamps are priced below 30 euros. Now the shape of the desk lamp is more fixed. A unique and affordable lamp has great market value. Desk lamp basically is Illumination action, facilitate reading, study, work. As the ceaseless development of desk lamp appearance, modelling, desk lamp has far exceeded the value of desk lamp itself, the desk lamp has become an artwork.
Inspiration
Just like the name, we got this inspiration from the shape of the donut. Donut is a very popular dessert for many people. We think the shape is very suitable as a lamp because of cuteness. When I was eating the donut, I realized it is a circle shape. Meanwhile the adjustment switch of major desk lamp also is circular. So we combined the switch with the donut to create this design.
Project Duration
The project started in September 2020 in Milan and finished in February 2021 in that place, and was exhibited in China in February 2021.
Operation Flow
First, users connect the donut to a power source. Second, put the hand on the donut and push the bulb clockwise and the lamp will light up. Third, continue to push clockwise to increase the brightness. Last, if you want to lower the brightness or turn off the lamp, push the bulb counterclockwise.
