Lotus Leaf Lamp | Lighting
Back in 2018, Giao visited Ecolotus to research their materials for my school project. The project was ended satisfactorily thanks to their support.
After three years, they met once again when Ecolotus needed a compact and elegant lamp for their Middle Autumn gift set. Technically, the lamp had to be fit in a normal sized Middle Autumn cake box. Romantically, the gift tell the memories of Ecolotus founders and their coeval friends' childhood.
Giao asked her friend Nguyen Tran Nhat Khanh to join the project and we had a lot of fun through the journey. They made a wide range of material experiments to explore all the possibilities. In final, they chose a sphere form which remind the September full moon shape. For the compaction, they seperated the lamp into three parts: a lotus leaf shade, a sphere body and a cylinder base. All the decisions aimed for ease to manufacturing and commercial purposes.
They also brought our work to Viet Nam Design Week 2021.
It was honorably chosen in TOP 25 +5 of the design contest.
