About Loop Mpitoeran-jiro
Ny mpitoeran-jiro Loop, nomena anarana noho ny endriny miavaka, dia manana tadivavarana telo mifamatotra izay miasa ho fototra mafy orina hametrahana jiro lava. Ny tadivavarana mitsangana izay mitoetra ny jiro dia manampy endrika mendrika amin'ny hatsaran-javatra amin'ny ankapobeny. Mba hisorohana ny fikosohan'ny savoka eny ambonin'ny tany, dia nisy lovia miaraka nohavaozina manokana ho an'ity mpitoeran-jiro ity. Ity lovia ity dia tsy vitan'ny misakana ny savoka be loatra ihany fa miasa ho haingo trano manokana koa rehefa tsy ampiasaina. Ny mpitoeran-jiro Loop sy ny lovia dia mamorona andiana mirindra sy mahasarika amin'ny maso izay sady mahomby no kanto.

- Unique Properties
- The Loop candleholder, inspired by the concept of infinity, boasts a unique design that allows it to sit steadily on a coffee table while emitting captivating infinite loop shadows onto the surface below. The candleholder's elegant tray serves a dual purpose, not only catching any wax that drips but also functioning as a standalone decorative item for jewelry storage.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- Candleholder dimensions are 160mm x 160mm x 90mm

- Production Technology
- The design's initial prototype had been created on the computer, but the true challenge lay in transitioning a 3D digital product into physical production. Thus, the design of the mold posed as much of a challenge as the object itself.
- Design Challenge
- The mold of the Loop Candleholder has been quiet a challenge since there are three big loops that are the main legs and a perpendicularly placed fourth loop that houses the candle. Therefor the mold consists of five pieces that come together and it takes crafty hands to remove each copy without damaging the pieces.
- Research
- Most of the geometrical design challenges were solved on the computer, digitally first. The angle of how the curves transition into the fourth loop that houses the tall candle were carefully studied and tested well so that the candle would sit stably when pushed in.
- Inspiration
- The Loop Candleholder draws inspiration from the infinity symbol, translating its geometric form into a modern home accessory. The challenge of this project was to connect three loops with each other while creating a fourth loop in the center to house a tall candleholder.
The accompanying tray serves as a surface for the candleholder's melted wax and highlights the design's geometrical twists in the corners, adding an accentuating touch to the overall aesthetic. - Project Duration
- The project took 200 hours until completion. The design was first started on a 3D application on the computer later printed to size and the prototype was well finessed so that the silicon mold could capture all the details. The silicon mold is based of 5 parts that are secured with 3D printed parts and bolts.
- Operation Flow
- Loop candleholder can be easily transferred by holding one of the loops and positioning it on a table. It transforms the space with it's geometrical aesthetics and when lit creates various nice loop shadows on the surface it is placed on.
