About Swirl Lamp 照明

スワール（Swirl）ペンダントランプは、メレンゲクッキーの繊細な形状からインスピレーションを得てデザインされ、住まいのさまざまな空間に個性を添えます。長いテーブルの上にクラスター状に配置したり、コーヒーテーブルの上に単独で吊るしたりすると、とりわけ印象的な佇まいを見せます。左右対称の構造と、絞り袋から絞り出されたアイシングを思わせる流れるような曲線が、ポップアートに着想を得たインテリアの趣を空間にもたらします。

Many food scan data has been formed during this research, but The Meringue cookie's scan was selected since it had a great pattern. Through 3D scanning and careful remodeling, the unique meringue shape is transformed into a symmetric lamp, complemented by carefully chosen brass accessories that follow the lamp's curved form.
Inspiration: The inspiration behind the lamp's design stems from the Meringue cookie, with a process involving 3D scanning of edible items and translating them into practical design elements for everyday household decor. The lamp's symmetrical form and the curves that flow through contribute to its charm in enhancing living spaces with a touch of Pop Art inspired home decor.
