First Prize at the A’DESIGN Award 2012

Designer: Luca Matta
: “EVOLUTION” IS A HANGING LAMP COMPOSED BY A RECYCLED ALUMINUM PLATE SUPPORTING LIGHT DIFFUSERS WHERE THE “OLED” FLEXIBLE FILMS ARE SIDE BY SIDE ALONG THEIR BENDING. ALL THE DIFFUSERS ARE THE SAME, BUT IT 'S POSSIBLE, BY STRUCTURALLY DIFFERENT PLATES, TO INSERT MORE DIFFUSERS INSIDE THE LAMP AND IN THIS WAY TO OBTAIN A MORE DECORATIVE LAMP. AS REGARD THE MATERIAL TO BE USED FOR THE DIFFUSERS I THOUGHT TO USE A CORN BIOPOLYMER SINCE IT’S EASILY WORKABLE AND THERMOFORMABLE. THE MOST INTERESTING ASPECT OF “EVOLUTION” IS ITS CONTINOUSLY EVOLVING; EVERYTHING DEPENDS BY THE SIZE AND THE SHAPE OF CENTRAL PLATE. YOU CAN MAKE A REAL “REVOLVE” AROUND THE VERTICAL AXIS OF THE LAMP UP TO GET IT CLOSED. AT THE END YOU CAN HAVE 4 TIPOLOGIES OF LAMP: FLOOR, SUSPENSION, TABLE LAMP, CEILING / WALL. FROM THE VIDEO ENCLOSED YOU CAN REALIZE THE EVOLVING AND THE CONCEPT OF THIS PRODUCT.
