About Froggie Làmpada de taula

Froggie és una làmpada de taula inspirada en la doble vida dels amfibis entre la terra i l'aigua. El disseny captura el moment en què una granota s'eleva per sobre de la superfície de l'aigua. Els ulls de Froggie fan de dues fonts de llum, mentre que el cos exposat sobre l'aigua forma la base. Tots dos ulls són flexibles, de manera que la forma dels ulls es pot ajustar a diferents posicions per crear efectes d'il·luminació variats. A cada narius hi ha un botó sensor tàctil, de manera que cada llum es pot encendre i apagar per separat. Froggie explora el biomimetisme com a font de disseny lúdic.

Production Technology
Froggie's eyes are made to be bendable. Each nostril is equipped with a touch sensor button where users can turn on and off each light.
Design Challenge
The most challenging part was to figure out proper representations for each design element, for example, how big its eyes should be proportional to the body, and how much its body should be shown, compared to the rest of its submerged part.
Research
Froggie is to explore biomimicry in design. It attempts to translate "double life" of Amphibians into lighting design language.
Inspiration
Froggie was inspired by "double life" of amphibians between land and water. Frogs have the permeable skin, which allows them to breathe through the skin in water. They also breathe through the nostrils above the water surface or on land.
Project Duration
The project began in January 2021 and finished in January 2021 in Banff, Canada.
Operation Flow
Users are able to manipulate its eye shapes by adjusting their positions, which could render various lighting effects.
