The Design

About Pluto La Lámpara De Trabajo

Plutón mantiene el enfoque firmemente en el estilo. Su cilindro compacto y aerodinámico está orbitado por un elegante mango posado sobre una base de trípode en ángulo, lo que facilita su colocación con su luz suave pero enfocada con precisión. Su forma se inspiró en los telescopios, pero en cambio, busca enfocarse en la tierra en lugar de las estrellas. Hecho con impresión 3D utilizando plásticos a base de maíz, es único, no solo para usar impresoras 3D de manera industrial, sino también ecológico.

Production Technology
Pluto was manufactured by Gantri, a company based in San Francisco. It utilizes corn-based plastics. Making it not only innovative, for using 3d printers in a industrial fashion, but also very eco-friendly.
Design Challenge
In order to make the design viable for FDM 3d Printing, we had to test out and split it into various interconnecting pieces that were later assembled together to form the final product.
Research
We worked on developing a complex form, full of negative space while still facilitating the printing and assembly process.
Inspiration
Pluto was inspired by telescopes, which use tripods and dynamic but stable forms. But instead, I sought to design a light that focuses on the earth instead of the stars.
Project Duration
The project started as an individual project from March to the end of June 2018 and was developed alongside Gantri's engineering from July 2018 to January of 2019.
Operation Flow
Pluto is equipped with a dimmable LED bulb that is regulated by a switch attached to its power cord. The amount of light being cast can be controlled to the user's preference.
