About Wave 灯具

Wave（波）是一款装饰灯具，由塑料波浪形环圈通过钢杆串联固定而成。从侧面看，每一个环圈都形似无限符号，起伏流动，无始无终。该灯具提供多种尺寸与款式，包括落地灯、台灯和吸顶灯。点亮时，环圈反射光线，营造出明暗交错的光影效果，赋予作品纵深感；熄灭时，灯具则呈现出厚重而富有雕塑感的姿态。多个单元还可组合搭配，构成大型灯光结构或吊灯装置。

Design Challenge: The challenge was to create a lamp made of modules that could itself be a module for endless possibilities light installations. It can be used as a single unit or combined with other types. There's a wide variety of options to create a unique atmosphere. In this way Wave incorporates the user into the design process.
Research: The starting point was a combination of emotional encounter with light and a material experiment. The material research focused on the translation of 2D planar geometry in 3 dimensional forms.
Until the final form of Wave was realized, diverse prototypes has been constructed to get the best result. The exact shape of the wavy rings, the distance between them, the colors, the way the rings reflect were researched in many ways to have the best indirect light source.
Inspiration: The idea was to channel the light beam so that thanks to the sinuosity of the components it sways as if inside is hiding a secret source of light.
This lamp is made of plastic wavy rings held together by steel rods. The ring viewed from the side looks like the infinity sign, depicted by the undulating movement that has no beginning and no end.
Project Duration: The project started in 2016 in Italy and finished in 2018 in China. Wave was exhibited in Hong Kong Lighting fair 2018
Operation Flow: The lamp has a visual duality. When lit, the waves that reflect the light create a suggestive chiaroscuro effect givig the lamp a visual perception of depth which changes depending upon the viewing angle. The light beam sways thanks to the wavy rings of the lamp creating evocative shadows.
When switched off, the lamp appears more dense and sculptural.
