About Float Nyali Yopachikika

Float ndi nyali yopachikika yopangidwa kuti izigwiritsidwa ntchito mkati mwa nyumba. Chophimba chake chapangidwa ndi bango la aluminiyamu lopindidwa ndipo chimayandama pakati pa zigawo ziwiri zozungulira ngati silinda, kusiya mpata woonekera pakati pa zigawozo. Zigawo zina ndi za aluminiyamu zosinthidwa ndi kusemedwa, zokutidwa ndi utoto wa powder coating. Gwero la kuwala limagwiritsa ntchito tekinoloje ya LED pamodzi ndi chofalitsa kuwala chopangidwa ndi PMMA. Nyaliyi ili ndi mkulungo wa 1200 mm ndi msinkhu wa 170 mm. Float imapachikidwa padenga pogwiritsa ntchito mfundo ziwiri zochirikiza, ndipo bokosi loonda la aluminiyamu limabisa mawaya. Palibe zomangira zoonekera, komabe chigawo chilichonse chimatha kuchotsedwa ndi kusinthidwa.

Production Technology: Shade is shaped using aluminum sheet bending technology. Other components of construction are mainly made from turned and milled aluminum. The light source uses LED technology and diffusor made from pmma. Aluminum parts are powder coated.
Design Challenge: Because at first it was made as bespoke lamp, the assembly was made in welding technic. After decision to put lamp in bigger market, the question of feasibility arose, but intention of clean and monolithic aesthetics remained. During design process a great consideration was shown for integrating technology components into the lamp design itself. It helped to avoid additional boxes on ceilings for power sources. There are no visible fasteners, but still every element can be detached and replaced separately.
Inspiration: Inspiration came from architecture and nature. It's like floating leaf in space, light and delicate, but in the same time it is a formant of space, the element of scale, the present, no noise, just beautiful relationship between space and object.
Project Duration: Lamp design process started in late 2017 as part of individual interior project. In 2019 it was put on serial production in Kaunas, Lithuania.
Operation Flow: The lamp is delivered already assembled. It hangs from the ceiling on two anchor points. Only 6mm diameter aluminum box mounted to ceiling conceals wiring. Lamp is controlled by a standard switch or dimer.
