Bamidele Elegbede: Week 7 Lamp

REMI Side Table/Lamp

I designed REMI to serve the purpose of a side table and a lamp. I see REMI being used often as a bedside table. REMI allows a bedside table to be smaller and less cluttered now that a lamp don't have to be on top. I paid special attention to the structure of REMI since it would  have load applied onto it. This is why I rotated the vertical sections and also reversed the notch placement of the last horizontal section.The rotation creates torsion within the structure allowing it to be a lot more stable and the reversed section on the bottom holds the structure from separating. This makes REMI structurally stable, lightweight yet aesthetically pleasing.

To model REMI I first drew the shape and revolved it into a solid. I then created the sections and used pipes to create the waffles.
