About Quietvale Itara ryo ku Meza Rifite Uburyo bwo Gushyiramo Umuriro

Quietvale ni itara ryo ku meza ryoroshye kwimurwa rifite ubushobozi bwo gushyiramo umuriro nta nsinga ku bikoresho by'umuntu ku giti cye. Umubiri w'itara ukozwe mu ibuye rimwe rya cloud stone yo muri Esipanye ryabajwe hakoreshejwe ikoranabuhanga rya CNC kandi rirangizwa hakoreshejwe irangi ribonerana ririnda ibuye. Igice cyo hasi cyakozwe mu buryo gakondo bwo gushonga icyuma mu musenyi kugira ngo habeho urusengero rw'icyuma, rukaba rurimo igikoresho gishyiramo umuriro nta nsinga hamwe na bateri imbere. Imiterere y'icyuma yihishe ishyigikira ibuye mu gihe cyo kwimurwa. Gukoraho gake ku mubiri w'itara bicana cyangwa bikazimya urumuri, naho ukuboko gushyizwe imbere y'itara guhindura ingano y'urumuri.

Production Technology
The lamp body is crafted from a solid piece of Spanish cloud stone shaped by CNC carving, with a transparent protective coating applied to the surface. The base is formed through traditional sand-casting to create the metal frame, integrating wireless charging modules and lithium battery packs internally. The cloud stone and metal structure are connected with hidden snap-fit fasteners, while all wiring is enclosed within the frame, seamlessly integrating functionality and aesthetics.
Design Challenge
The most challenging aspect of this design was balancing the substantial texture of natural cloud stone with the structural strength required for portability. To ensure the stability of the fragile stone during mobile use, the team conducted repeated tests and ultimately adopted a composite structure with a hidden metal frame and partial lining. This solution maintains the stone's visual integrity while meeting the mechanical demands of portable usage.
Research
This research explores combining the timeless quality of natural materials with smart technology. Using Spanish marble and traditional sand-casting preserves its texture and inherent warmth. Integrating smart sensors and a portable design makes the lamp not only a lighting tool but also an adaptive device for modern, mobile lifestyles. The result balances natural aesthetics with practical technology, honoring traditional craftsmanship while meeting contemporary needs.
Inspiration
Quietvale is born from the fusion of texture and function. Drawing inspiration from the warm, natural grain of Spanish alabaster, the base reflects a rustic and grounding aesthetic. To meet contemporary needs, it features portable lighting and device charging. Quietvale seamlessly marries the warmth of nature with smart technology, delivering a lamp that is both a work of art and a practical tool.
Project Duration
Designed in Shanghai in June 2025
Operation Flow
Gently touch any part of the lamp body to turn the light on or off. Hover your hand in front of the lamp to adjust the brightness. The lamp can be easily carried to any area in your home that needs lighting.
