About Pluto Lampa de Trabalh
Pluto manten fermament l'enfòc sus l'estil. Son cilindre compacte e aerodinamic es orbitat per una ansa eleganta perpausada sus una basa en trepè angulat, que la fa mai aisida de posicionar amb sa lutz doça mas focalizada amb precision. Sa forma foguèt inspirada dels telescòpis, mas a l'encòp, cèrca de se concentrar sus la Tèrra puslèu que sus las estelas. Fabricada amb impression 3D en utilizant de plastics a basa de milh, es unica, non solament per l'usatge d'impressoras 3D de manièra industriala, mas tanben ecologica.

- 3d printing, brazilian design, space, focus, PLA
- Production Technology
- Pluto was manufactured by Gantri, a company based in San Francisco. It utilizes corn-based plastics. Making it not only innovative, for using 3d printers in a industrial fashion, but also very eco-friendly.
- Design Challenge
- In order to make the design viable for FDM 3d Printing, we had to test out and split it into various interconnecting pieces that were later assembled together to form the final product.
- Research
- We worked on developing a complex form, full of negative space while still facilitating the printing and assembly process.
- Inspiration
- Pluto was inspired by telescopes, which use tripods and dynamic but stable forms. But instead, I sought to design a light that focuses on the earth instead of the stars.
- Project Duration
- The project started as an individual project from March to the end of June 2018 and was developed alongside Gantri's engineering from July 2018 to January of 2019.
- Operation Flow
- Pluto is equipped with a dimmable LED bulb that is regulated by a switch attached to its power cord. The amount of light being cast can be controlled to the user's preference.
