Eureka, a brilliant idea
Eureka is a unique and innovative design that embodies movement and dynamism. Inspired by the concept of twisting, the design explores the interplay of form and movement, resulting in a visually striking and fluid structure. The lamp’s defining feature is its ability to conceal and reveal hidden geometries through an intricate play of light. This effect is achieved by alternating opaque and translucent surfaces of varying thickness, which are imperceptible when the lamp is off, but create a dynamic visual experience when illuminated. The design is rooted in circular geometry, with convex and concave surfaces shaping the overall shape.
Eureka’s final structure is a seamless blend of translational and rotational movement, creating an object that is not only aesthetically refined but also highly functional.
Task
The contest, organized by UNINA, was to design an innovative lamp while experimenting 3D printing using a PLA.
