Flight Lamp

description
Flight Lamp is a substantial desk lamp with fine details and materials, that can be shipped deconstructed in an 11"x17" envelope. The shade is laser cut from Spruce aircraft plywood, the dowels are birch hardwood, and the legs are either solid polished Brass or Copper. The materials and finish have been meticulously chosen to match their possible patinas. When the brass oxidizes, it darkens and will compliment its all black counterparts. As for the copper legs, they will turn a minty green, complimenting the mint stained shade. Like most objects that are meant to transcend generations, components of the flight lamp can be removed easily and cared for. The legs are easily removed for polishing if one wants to retain the mirrored finish of the brass or copper.
Heavystock shelving

description
Heavystock is a simple, clean, and sturdy low shelving system. Heavystock consists of simple soft form maple legs and steel shelves. The heavy stock shelving has a light paper- like profile but is quite the opposite. When constructed the shelving is weighty and rigid. The radius created from the bending of the steel panels is mirrored by the radiuses on the legs where the steel shelves meet the Maple legs, making the connections very subtle and almost illusional. Heavy stock keeps its light and simple form and also remains rigid without cross braces through the arrangement of the legs. By connecting the legs on the bias, there is no need for braces since any twisting is counter acted by the adjacent legs.
an evocative space
description
The objective of this project was to build a cardboard space that evoked an emotion. Working in a team, we explored the emotion of fear, and were inspired by the Panopticon and ideas of surveillance.
Our space is an asymmetrical pyramid featuring two viewports. Interacting with the space allowed viewers to observe the person in the structure, without the person being able to identify who is watching them.
