About Froggie Chira Masê

Froggie chirayeke masêye ku ji jiyana dutayî ya amfîbiyan a di navbera bejahî û avê de îlham girtiye. Sêwirandin ew kêliya ku beq serê xwe ji rûyê avê hildike vediguhezîne. Çavên Froggie wek du çavkaniyên ronahiyê xizmet dikin, di heman demê de laşê wê yê ku li ser avê xuya ye jî bingehê wê pêk tîne. Herdu çav xwarbar in, ji ber vê yekê şeklên çavan dikarin bêne guhertin û li ser cihên cuda bêne saz kirin da ku bandorên ronahiyê yên cuda çêbibin. Di her kortila poz de bişkokek pêketoka bi lêdanê hatiye danîn, wisa ku her ronahî bi cuda ve tê vekirin û girtin. Froggie biyomîmîkriyê wek çavkaniyeke sêwirana lîstikane vedikole.

Unique Properties: Froggie is a desk lamp project that inspires playful creativity. It captures the very moment when a frog rises above water. The eyes are represented as lighting sources, and the exposed body above water as a base.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width 256 mm x Depth 165 mm x Height (max.) 310 mm
*Sizes may vary
Tags: Frog Lamp, Froggie Lighting, Frog Lighting
Production Technology: Froggie's eyes are made to be bendable. Each nostril is equipped with a touch sensor button where users can turn on and off each light.
Design Challenge: The most challenging part was to figure out proper representations for each design element, for example, how big its eyes should be proportional to the body, and how much its body should be shown, compared to the rest of its submerged part.
Research: Froggie is to explore biomimicry in design. It attempts to translate "double life" of Amphibians into lighting design language.
Inspiration: Froggie was inspired by "double life" of amphibians between land and water. Frogs have the permeable skin, which allows them to breathe through the skin in water. They also breathe through the nostrils above the water surface or on land.
Project Duration: The project began in January 2021 and finished in January 2021 in Banff, Canada.
Operation Flow: Users are able to manipulate its eye shapes by adjusting their positions, which could render various lighting effects.
