Haec elementa moveri possunt ut species lucernae mutetur. Elementa etiam in uno plano componi possunt, ita ut lucerna plane condatur minusque involucri, materiae et spatii vecturae requirat. Sphaera vitri obscurati in centro tabulam LED continet. Lucerna ex compage metallica, vitro obscurato et filo textili confecta est.

Research
To create a movable structure that can conform to any person, and also assemble to save space for the sake of ecology.
Inspiration
The main source of inspiration was the National Russian toy - Matryoshka, however, to be more precise, it was the principle of its design. It consists of one form, but of different scales. They can all create a common object. In addition, this principle allows you to change the design of the product and interact with the user in the form of a game.
The name of the lamp conveys the basic principle of the design, which is built on the scaling of one silhouette.
Project Duration
The project started in March 2018 in Moscow and finished in May 2018 in Moscow.
Operation Flow
