The Design

About Otsuchi Lampu Meja

Otsuchi adalah lampu meja yang dibuat dari kulit rusa yang bersumber dari Otsuchi, Iwate, Jepang. Kota ini pernah dilanda tsunami akibat Gempa Bumi Besar Jepang Timur pada 2011. Tanaman pertanian setempat kemudian mengalami kerusakan seiring bertambahnya populasi rusa dan menurunnya jumlah penduduk. Para pemburu setempat lalu memulai usaha daging buruan untuk memanfaatkan rusa yang diburu sebagai hama. Lampu ini dibangun dari struktur cetak 3D yang dilapisi kulit rusa, dan teksturnya mengingatkan pada bentuk hewan yang hidup. Desain ini menghormati kehidupan sang rusa dan menghadirkan kehadiran yang menenangkan.

Production Technology
Crafted from 3D printed structure coverd by deer leather.
Inspiration
The Table lamp is made from a deer leather captured in Otsuchi, Iwate, Japan. Otsuchi was destroyed by the devastating tsunami caused by the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake.
Our crop has been damaged due to a significant increase in number of deer, while the population of local residents declined. Local hunters started
the Gibier business to carry on the life of a deer that was hunted as vermin. This lamp was created in a hope to carry on deer's life and create a feeling of peace to the user.
Project Duration
The project started in Apr. 2023 in Otsuchi, Iwate and finished in Jan, and was exhibited in Salone del Mobile in June 2024.
Operation Flow
This table lamp conveys an organic, animalistic impression to people,
and also gives a wild impression.
This lamp, which makes you feel the vitality of a deer that once lived,
gives people the warmth of life.
