About Linear Refraction रेखीयवर्तनम् — मेजदीपः, परिवेशप्रकाशः च

रेखीयवर्तनम् (Linear Refraction) इति चीनदेशस्य लिशुई-नगरे एकस्य अभिकल्पनगृहस्य (डिज़ाइन होटल) कृते निर्मितः मेजदीपः परिवेशप्रकाशश्च अस्ति। अयं दीपः एकं रेखीयम् एल.इ.डी.-नलिकां पूजियाङ्ग-प्रदेशात् आनीतेन स्फटिककाचस्य आधारेण संयोजयति। अयम् आधारः एकं वर्णयुक्तम् अन्तःस्तरं धारयति, यः श्वेतप्रकाशम् अनेकवर्णेषु वर्तयति, इन्द्रधनुषः स्मरणं कारयन्। उपयोगस्य द्वौ प्रकारौ प्रदत्तौ स्तः। क्षैतिजरूपेण स्थापितः सन्, अयं दीपः समायोज्यः पठनप्रकाशः भवति। ऊर्ध्वरूपेण स्थापितः सन्, प्रकाशः स्फटिकाधारस्य अन्तः दीप्यते, वर्णमयं वातावरणं सृजन्। स्पर्शनियन्त्रणेन प्रकाशः प्रवर्त्यते मन्दीक्रियते च, अन्तिमा व्यवस्था च स्मर्यते।

Production Technology
The material of the light base is made from the highest quality crystal with a colorful sticker inner. The crystal is from Pujiang, the crystal kingdom of China. All the material of the light tube is made in Taiwan and assembled manually.
Design Challenge
Considering the different demands of travelers and the product’s duration, artist Ray Teng Pai spent much time adjusting the details of the product. From designing to making, the design team not only creates original design style and art performance but also merges sensibility and rationality to realize practical value. Challenging the limit of manufacturing art and fuse traditional craft and unique conception, Ray practiced the aesthetic value of light and shadow.
Inspiration
The design of the Linear Refraction series is inspired by the phenomenon known as the rainbow.
The crystal glass base embodies the water vapor in the air, refracting white light into a multitude of colors. The inspired use of this crystal clear design makes the Linear Refraction - Desk Light an exquisite art installation of both form and function.
Project Duration
The project started in October 2019 in Taipei and finished in March 2020 in Lishui.
Operation Flow
There are two modes of usage. When laying down the linear light horizontally, it becomes an adjustable reading light. When sitting it up vertically, the light illuminates from within the crystal glass base to create a colorful fantasy atmosphere.
A light touch at the end of the linear tip simply turns on or off the light. A long touch, however, can brighten or dim a given light. The Linear light remembers the previous setting, thus it always lights up smoothly at your expected volume.
