About Magic Lampa de taula
Magic es una lampa de taula inspirada per la forma naturala del bolet Liberty Cap. L'abajor es imprimit en 3D a partir de plastic d'origina vegetala, e la lutz que passa a travèrs l'abajor met en valor las linhas concentricas en espirala daissadas pel procès d'impression. De lamèlas semblablas a las d'un bolet jos lo cap son tanben imprimidas en 3D. Lo pè e la basa son talhats a la man dins de fusta dura d'origina locala, e doncas cada pèça es unica. Se pòdon causir tres nivèls de luminositat amb un variator sensible al tocament amagat dins la basa. La lampa mesura 150 per 150 per 650 millimètres.

- Research
- After picking this mushroom in the fields of South Bohemia, the designer experienced its 'magical' psychedelic effects. The mushrooms appeared to him to glow and pulsate with a kind of 'life force'. He decided to capture this experience by using its form as a lamp design, the electricity and light bringing it to life. To create this the designer aimed to innovatively combine 3D printing technology with the hand crafted wooden form so the entire piece could be produced in house, with ecological materials. Research and experimentation were carried out in his workshop and with design software.
- Inspiration
- The natural form of the Liberty Cap (Psilocybe Semilanceata) a potent psychedelic mushroom inspired this design. Scientists have been recently discovering the powerful healing potential of this mushroom, and they are increasingly being used therapeutically around the world. As it's significance to our human experience becomes ever more understood, the form of this mushroom becomes more recognizable, carries more meaning, and deserves attention.
