About The Porthole 벽 조명

포트홀(Porthole)은 항공기 객실 창문에서 영감을 받은 벽 조명이다. 셰이드 패널을 위로 밀어 올려 빛을 조절하며, 셰이드가 열릴수록 조명은 점점 밝아지고 패널이 완전히 열리면 최대 밝기에 도달한다. 익숙한 형태 덕분에 별도의 설명 없이도 작동 방식을 직관적으로 이해할 수 있다. LED 패널에는 빛을 산란시키고 서로 다른 파장을 분리하는 과산화나트륨 나노입자가 코팅되어 있어, 햇빛이 대기를 통과할 때와 유사한 효과를 만들어낸다. 이 벽 조명의 크기는 225 x 300 x 55밀리미터이다.

With creative design touches emotion , the light does not have to make people feel like a light, and the space people in does not have to feel like its in there room. This kind of "emotional" wall light is in lack.
Inspiration: The inspiration is taken from the porthole of the airplane. Every time on the plane, the joy and the excitement for the trip inside my body.When turn up the window and light exudes,it feels like turn on the light. The wall light will remind people of their time spent on the airplane, heading to destination on travel, and full of joy and excitement. We want to bring these feelings to people, especially under the Coronavirus when people have to stay at home, we may feel lonely, sad, depressed, but when we turn up the light, look through “The Porthole”, it seems like we are on the plane at present, looking out the window, ready to face a brand new day.
Project Duration: The project started in April 2021 and finished in Feburary 2022 in Shanghai.
Operation Flow: The lamp lights up in an attractive way by pulling up the window shade, the light becomes brighter while slowly opening the window. When the panel is completely open, the lamp will at its brightest.
