Lighting
Flipping light switches ties
to ritual moments in life:
focus, recollect, relax…
Smart home tech brings
versatility and convenience,
but loses the sensual interaction.
l'accordion seeks to
condense the daily odyssey
into a desktop lighting experience.
By moving the handle,
the user adjusts the lamp's
brightness along its physical span,
bringing the perfect glow
for any given moment.
Explore existing icons,
condense them in size,
and map the motion to light.
Infuse an architectural sense
of delicacy to the motion with
multi-dimensional miura fold.
Acrylic scissors, linear potentiometer,
mylar shades,and beeswaxed dowel
unify to realize the gentle wall of glow.
