Brian Kuo: Week 8 Lamp














For this project I did not have any immediate inspiration for my project. When I thought about it a little more, I realized that it would be useful to me if the light emitted a warm set of colors so I could relax better before bed. The form and colors used in this piece reflect this decision.

To create the horizontals of the lamp, I drew out a cross section curve then revolved it. I then used the contour and section commands to create my horizontal and vertical sections. Lastly, I selected the intersections, piped them, and split them from the rest of the lamp.

My choice of materials was painted wood. I chose this to give it some extra visual excitement when the lamp is off. When this project is laser printed in real life, I may actually paint the lamp these colors.
