About Otsuchi Borðljós

Otsuchi er borðlampi gerður úr hjartarleðri sem fengið er í Otsuchi í Iwate í Japan. Bærinn varð fyrir flóðbylgjunni sem fylgdi jarðskjálftanum mikla í Austur-Japan árið 2011. Uppskera á svæðinu skemmdist síðar þegar hjörtum fjölgaði en íbúum fækkaði. Veiðimenn á staðnum hófu villibráðarrekstur til að nýta hirti sem veiddir voru sem meindýr. Lampinn er byggður á þrívíddarprentaðri grind sem klædd er hjartarleðri og áferðin minnir á form lifandi dýrs. Hönnunin heiðrar líf hjartarins og veitir rólega nærveru.

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.
