FLOATING ISLAND
TABLE LAMP
2023, Individual Work at RISD, 1.5 Months
The Floating Island is a table lamp that stands out by the softness of its lampshades and the hardness of its base. The light emanates evenly from the lampshade, gently diffusing into the translucent base, elegantly creating a contrast of two lighting effects.
The lampshade is made of milk glass, which evenly diffuses a soft light. The base is made of translucent resin with a gradient effect of transparent black.
