Julian Dinsing Week 7: Lamp



As I was looking for inspiration I first went through a few images of cars and tried to find lines and shapes that I might like once I would revolve them. After trying a few times my final idea came to me. This is also the reason why this lamp is called the dragonfly lamp. I took the side profile of a dragonfly wing and shortened it to five inches so that the lamp would have the desired 10 inch diameter. I revolved the curve and that is where I got the shape from.
The lamp is supposed to be used as a little night light. This is the reason for the dense sectioning. With a total of 28 sections the bulb will barely be seen and the light given of wont be very bright. This was important for me as I wanted my design to appear clean and almost like a real lamp shade. I am hoping that the shapes which will be seen once the light is turned out look amazing and hope to use this lamp in my room which is why I will go with wood.
