Brief Analysis

Exploring references and defining modularity

The project started from the brief: designing a modular piece of furniture. We conducted visual and conceptual research, drawing inspiration from brands like Vitra and IKEA, focusing on modular structures, soft lighting, and customizable elements.

Module Development

Sketching and experimenting with physical forms

We developed and compared various module designs through sketches and paper prototypes. These were then tested using plastic models to evaluate stability, adaptability, and aesthetic potential.

Concept Definition

Material selection and structural logic

We refined the product’s structure into a modular cylindrical lamp, combining clean, flowing lines with technical efficiency. The lamp is suspended using steel wires, creating a lightweight, balanced, and elegant composition.

Prototyping

Material selection and assembling

After evaluating multiple options, we finalized the concept by using matte polycarbonate for the modules and an M3 screw/bolt system for assembly. Due to technical limitations, all 102 pieces were manually produced to ensure precision.
