The Design

About Ozz Taklampa

Denna lampdesign är inspirerad av en trollkarls hatt och är uppkallad efter en av de mest berömda trollkarlarna, Oz. Dess design bygger på idén att endast använda en cirkel som designelement, omvandlad genom olika vågformade variationer för att definiera en form. Även om siluetten förblir relativt konsekvent från olika synvinklar, påverkar de skiftande kurvorna subtilt hur en person interagerar med lampan. Att röra sig runt den skapar en känsla av vågliknande rörelse för betraktaren.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This lamp’s form is defined by six curves based on the circle. The top and bottom circles are perfect circles, while the four in between ones are deformed and angled to create variation. Though the overall silhouette remains similar from different viewpoints, the shifting curves affect how the lamp interacts with ambient light across its’ surface.
Dimensions & Packaging: Width: 30cm x Depth: 30cm x Height: 20cm

Production Technology: The lamp design was made digitally and for its’ plaster mold production a prototype was 3d printed. Along with the prototype, the container that was used in order to place the prototype in and create the plaster mold, was also 3d printed. For this product, a small table that the mold can rest on, with a hole and a valve installed on its’ underside was used, in order to achieve a smooth drain out of the porcelain slip. This was done, in order to achieve the cleanest possible cast from a heavy mold, with the least amount of post clean-up.
Design Challenge: Although the design and mold-making part proved to be straightforward, the biggest challenge arose during the firing of the porcelain. Finding the right temperature and firing programme for an object that has a large rim and irregular edges required a fair amount of tests.
Research: After designing the project and before jumping into its’ production, a prototype vessel was 3d printed in order to verify that an object with helical symmetry is in balance when suspended.
Inspiration: This lamp design draws inspiration from the form of a wizard’s hat; specifically, a tightly cropped interpretation that omits the brim and crown, leaving only the essence of its conical silhouette.
Project Duration: The product was designed in early 2025 and production started in the summer of 2025. The entire process took place in Istanbul, Turkey.
Operation Flow: The lamp’s size and opening allow for it to be used as the main form of illumination in a space. Its’ sharp wavy edges create a sense of motion, while its’ smooth but also angular form allow it to blend into many space with different interior styles.
