hood lamp

The Hood Lamp was created in collaboration with Sofia Arenas. We were asked by our professor, Andrea Caruso, in the course Introduction to Design Studio, to build a previously researched lamp. The purpose of the rebuilding is to get familiar with a products properties and components. We choose to base our design in the previously made Hood Lamp by the designer Andreas Kowalewski. Based on Kowaleski´s design we then searched for materials similar to the ones used in the original design. To add our own twist to it, we then choose to change the aesthetic of the lamp by focusing on the use of different colors in the metal used such as white and gold instead of the gray metal in the original design. Then we assembled the lamp by joining the pieces with bolts and completing the wiring. Before completing the metal lamp, we focused on building a prototype of the same lamp with card board. This was with the purpose of understanding the lamps measurements and dimensions. To build the cardboard prototype, we made a model of the lamp on rhino, and then used a laser cutter to cut the cardboard.
