Ikebana Lamp was derived from a combination of lighting and eco-design project. We were limited based on flat recyclable plastics and
paper, while at the same time considering the eco-design aspect, so as to achieve a lighting effect. Being inspired by the Japanese Flower arrangement, Ikebana, and working with principles such as randomness and rituality, we created a bedside lamp that was coincidentally
close to Alastair Fuad-Luke’s theory on slow design - a sustainability model.
In this project, I was responisble for the direction and research on a new lighting technology - electroluminescence (EL). In addition, besides the compilation of the lighting analysis, ecodesign analysis and final report, I momentarily acted as the project director, giving insights and drawing the focus back to the initial concepts, such that a flow of concept is generated, ensuring a positive outcome. Credit should be given to Kenny Lee Ze Wei and Ng Bao Xian Jorensylv for their efforts in 3d modelling and mock-ups respectively.
