Tsunami Light design

 

Rationale

The aim was create a light out of recycled polyproplyene JCDecaux poster. In order to best express the materials ability to be flexible, creating a 3D layer effect through cutting and folding best showed this ability. For efficient use of the material concentric heart shape was used as the base template. From this I experimented used different size cuts, shapes, then used pins to make prototype models. After creating different size and shaped  models, I created a interesting wave shaped model, that reminded me of a wave about the crash. It became the main inspiration for my light and then a refined model was created.
