About Iris Suga sa Dingding

Usa ka makabihag nga pagsagol sa arte ug gamit. Hinimo sa kamot ug gipintalan uban sa katukma ug taas nga kalidad nga mga materyales, nagpasidungog kini sa mata sa tawo ug sa iyang katahom. Pinaagi sa malumo niini nga paghulagway, abante nga teknolohiya sa LED, ug walay katapusan nga spektro sa mapasadya nga mga kolor, gibag-o niini ang mga lobby sa hotel ug opisina ngadto sa makapadani nga mga luna nga nagbilin ug malungtarong impresyon sa mga bisita. Sa mga balay, nahimong kini sinugdanan sa panagsultihanay ug punoan nga tumong nga dili direkta nga nag-dan-ag sa bisan unsang kwarto sa gitinguha nga kolor. Ang espesyal nga gidisenyo nga sistema sa pag-mount nagsiguro sa paspas ug sayon nga pag-instalar.

Production Technology
The Iris wall lamp is meticulously handcrafted in my studio. Its form, inspired by a contact lens, is shaped from aluminum to achieve both aesthetics and functionality. With my unique painting technique and the black chrome finishe, it exudes a captivating and distinctive appeal. High-quality LED lighting ensures energy efficiency and adjustable illumination. Effortless installation is ensured through a custom-designed mounting structure.
Design Challenge
Creating custom patterns for the individually shaped aluminum shells was challenging and costly. The light had to be concealed while effectively illuminating the entire lamp. The eye's proportions guided the design, necessitating adjustments to the light placement. The production of the mounting bracket and integrated light source required careful planning and collaboration with skilled professionals.
Research
Capturing the complexity and beauty of the human eye was a challenge, especially with my unique painting technique. The curved shape required multiple shape templates for the painting. Local manufacturing of the shells was difficult due to limited steel pressing expertise. However, the assembly bracket and integrated light source proved to be the most difficult. Finding the optimal position for the light source to illuminate the entire shade without being directly visible was a meticulous task.
Inspiration
Inspired by the captivating beauty and anatomy of the human eye, the Iris project combines art and functionality. Meticulously crafted, the lamp replicates the precise ratio between the iris and pupil, resembling an average human eye. The black chrome finish on the pupil allows for a reflective surface, enabling viewers to see themselves in the part of the eye responsible for vision. This design element adds a philosophical dimension to the artwork, inviting contemplation.
Project Duration
The project commenced in early 2022 in my studio, with initial designs and research focused on design and manufacturing. In April 2023, it made its first public appearance at the Salone del Mobile in Milan.
Operation Flow
The Iris lamp features an integrated LED lighting system that can be wirelessly controlled through a mobile phone or remote control. Users have the freedom to adjust the lighting color, brightness, and choose from a range of lighting modes. This seamless interaction allows for personalized lighting experiences, whether it's creating a soothing atmosphere or setting a dynamic and vibrant ambiance. The control options elevate the overall user experience, providing functionality and versatility.
