Lamp in Room







In designing this lamp I wanted to move away from simplistic modern design that I often try to achieve and explore something new. I wanted to create something for an eclectic environment, with warm light and a symmetrical yet sculptural presence. I found that I was greatly inspired by Spanish castles and towers. I wanted to capture the majesty of the turrets while still creating something grounded and strong. This lamp stands at 3' 6" tall, about 1' wide, and is in and of itself a sculptural piece. For my lighting, I chose a soft yellow vintage style bulb, and jimmy rigged a socket to fit it. I was determined to use that bulb. For materials in Keyshot I used a rough pine and warm wood plank. The finished mock-up is luann.
