The Design

About Pluto Uppgiftslampa

Pluto håller fokus på stil. Den kompakta, aerodynamiska cylindern kretsas av ett elegant handtag som ligger ovanför en vinklad stativbotten, vilket gör det lättare att placera med sitt mjuka men fokuserade ljus med precision. Dess form inspirerades av teleskop, men istället försöker den fokusera på jorden istället för stjärnorna. Tillverkad med 3D-tryck med majsbaserad plast är den unik, inte bara för att använda 3D-skrivare på ett industriellt sätt, utan också miljövänligt.

Tags: 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.
