About The Porthole Væglampe
Porthole er en væglampe inspireret af vinduet i en flykabine. Lyset styres ved at skyde skærmpanelet opad. Lampen bliver lysere, efterhånden som skærmen åbnes, og når fuld lysstyrke, når panelet er helt åbent. Den genkendelige form gør betjeningen let at forstå uden instruktion. LED-panelet er belagt med natriumperoxid-nanopartikler, der spreder lyset og adskiller de forskellige bølgelængder, hvilket giver en effekt, der minder om sollys, der passerer gennem atmosfæren. Væglampen måler 225 x 300 x 55 millimeter.

With creative design touches emotion , the light does not have to make people feel like a light, and the space people in does not have to feel like its in there room. This kind of "emotional" wall light is in lack.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration is taken from the porthole of the airplane. Every time on the plane, the joy and the excitement for the trip inside my body.When turn up the window and light exudes,it feels like turn on the light. The wall light will remind people of their time spent on the airplane, heading to destination on travel, and full of joy and excitement. We want to bring these feelings to people, especially under the Coronavirus when people have to stay at home, we may feel lonely, sad, depressed, but when we turn up the light, look through “The Porthole”, it seems like we are on the plane at present, looking out the window, ready to face a brand new day.
