About Wave Lamppu

Wave on koriste-valaisin, joka koostuu muovisista aaltomaisista renkaista, joita terästangot pitävät yhdessä. Sivusta katsottuna jokainen rengas muistuttaa äärettömyyden merkkiä, ja sen aaltoileva liike on vailla alkua ja loppua. Valaisinta valmistetaan eri kokoisina ja erilaisina versioina, mukaan lukien lattia-, pöytä- ja kattomallit. Sytytettynä renkaat heijastavat valoa ja luovat chiaroscuro-vaikutelman, joka antaa syvyyden tunnun. Sammutettuna valaisin näyttää tiiviiltä ja veistokselliselta. Useita yksiköitä voidaan yhdistää suuriksi valorakenteiksi tai kattokruunuiksi.

Design Challenge
The challenge was to create a lamp made of modules that could itself be a module for endless possibilities light installations. It can be used as a single unit or combined with other types. There's a wide variety of options to create a unique atmosphere. In this way Wave incorporates the user into the design process.
Research
The starting point was a combination of emotional encounter with light and a material experiment. The material research focused on the translation of 2D planar geometry in 3 dimensional forms.
Until the final form of Wave was realized, diverse prototypes has been constructed to get the best result. The exact shape of the wavy rings, the distance between them, the colors, the way the rings reflect were researched in many ways to have the best indirect light source.
Inspiration
The idea was to channel the light beam so that thanks to the sinuosity of the components it sways as if inside is hiding a secret source of light.
This lamp is made of plastic wavy rings held together by steel rods. The ring viewed from the side looks like the infinity sign, depicted by the undulating movement that has no beginning and no end.
Project Duration
The project started in 2016 in Italy and finished in 2018 in China. Wave was exhibited in Hong Kong Lighting fair 2018
Operation Flow
