About Tomori Aid Laterna komplekt

Book Text: Tomori Aid on kokkupandav valguskomplekt, mis muudab taskulambi pehmeks laternaks. Komplekt on valmistatud papist ning kokku pandud lihtsa struktuuri ja lihtsate kinnitusmeetodite abil. Kasutada saab iga sobiva suurusega taskulampi, mistõttu on rikkis taskulambi asemel võimalik kasutada teist. Kokkupandult mahub Tomori Aid A4-formaadi sisse ja on lihtsalt kaasaskantav katastroofivalmiduse kotis. Kokkupandult on laterna kõrgus 260 mm ja igal külje mõõt 170 mm. Disain on mõeldud kasutamiseks evakueerimise ajal ning igapäevaelus kodus.

Unique Properties: It is a lighting kit that changes the light of a linear LED flashlight into the light of a soft lantern born from the designer's own evacuation experience.

Tags: lantern, light, sustainable, prevention, flashlight, eco-friendly, disaster,
Production Technology: Tomori Aid is a collapsible lighting kit made of cardboard. Easy to assemble with simple structures and fixing methods, any flashlight of the right size can be turned into a lantern. It is designed to fit in A4 size when folded and is easy to carry. If one flashlight fails, you can substitute another flashlight, so you don't have to worry about lighting when you need it.
Design Challenge: It has both "portability that can be carried in a disaster prevention bag when evacuating" and "design that makes you want to decorate", and it is designed that it can be used as both a daily light and a light when a natural disaster strikes.
Research: During a power outage cause of a typhoon in Japan, the method of putting a PET bottle filled with water was spreading in news and SNS. So I realized that there was an urgent need to have an indirect light like a lantern, even though they had a flashlight, at the actual site, and started development to improve it.
Inspiration: When evacuating to a shelter due to typhoon damage in Japan, I've experienced the difference between imagination and reality. So I've developed Tomori Aid to solve problems by design when a natural disaster strikes.
Project Duration: The project started in November 2019 in Tokyo and finished in February 2021.
Operation Flow: Based on the designer's own evacuation experience, in order to solve the problems of power outages and lights at evacuation shelters, it has ben achieved both portability that is useful during evacuation and design that can be used in daily life.
