Lamp Sietynas

Press Kit

Unique Properties

It can illuminate a defined area or concentrate its light for greater luminosity. It achieves this not by increasing power but by bringing the light sources closer together with an electric sliding system on track. The electric movement mechanism is connected to an app that allows it to interact with music and sounds, creating proper performances and making it great for entertainment venues. Once connected to the app it can sense the local illumination and add the required amount of light based on the activity going on and can react to a series of different devices with preset settings.

Production Technology

It's a light fixture with variable dimensions: its modular construction allows it to be shaped according to the environment it's placed in and the performance required. Its modular form allows also for cost-efficient production. The central rail connecting it to the ceiling also distributes the necessary low tension electric power (the power transformer can be inserted into either end) and includes the electronic movement system. The light fixture can be made of aluminum with various finishes, chrome or satin. It is suited for various environments including the home, the office and entertainment venues.

Design Challenge

The creative research is to resolve problems related to priority with shape and not technology. The latter is a necessary foundation in the creation of the project but the object reacts to requests by changing its geometric shape, not by mutating its performance. This makes it not just a smart object, but a clever one.This is also how we get considerable energy savings both by doing the right task with the right amount of energy and it is done intelligently by increasing or decreasing the concentration of light elements, not by increasing their output.

Research

At the base of the project is precise research on user experience and new decor tendencies. The object has to have bold aesthetic contents and an elegant soul to be able to adapt to its surrounding contexts. Above all, it needs to adapt equally, almost as if sentient, to the user's need, by having great versatility and no instruction booklet.
Most of its functions are automatic and linked to one's smartphone. The rest are linked by app and rather second nature to understand.

Inspiration

Inspired by user experience and created using the principle of the pantograph, this chandelier allows the user to have either widespread or concentrated light and a piece of decor that not only characterizes a room, but allows the user to literally change environments and create a choreography by matching the light's activation movement with a connection to a sound system or a handheld device that welcomes the user once the device is detected.

Project Duration

Finished in 2018 in Teramo.

Operation Flow

The chandelier can grow longer or shorter. Every light can change color on an rgb scale and it's all manageable via App. In particular, the connection phone app can sense the environmental light on the user's workspace with its sensors and compensate the chandelier's light by bringing its lights closer together or farther apart. The app can manage the colors manually, the form of devices recognized and welcoming or musical movements by connecting to the cell phone's music player.
The choreography can be based on the light color, or movements.
