Project 1 - Paper Lamp
Intersection
Intersection is a paper lamp created by me, featuring an intersection of triangular pieces of paper creating clean lines and sharp edges.

This artwork located outside of Naas Fire Station, named ‘Siren’, initially inspired the design. The trumpet-like shapes are quite intriguing and could transform into an interesting lamp.
Pinterest provided inspiration for this project, aiding in the discovery of the lamp style I preferred and offering several ideas to assist in the design process of my lamp
Prototyping -
Initial prototype – This design was made taking inspiration from ‘Siren’, however, it didn’t reflect the angular and modular style that was preferred for the final lamp.
Second prototype – an exploration of the different ways that paper can be folded and bent together.
Final Design -
The design evolved into something more angular by cutting out diamond and triangle shapes and sticking them together to create a linear pattern.
The final design showcases clean, sharp edges, and its geometric form introduces a modern touch to a room. It serves as a functional light while blending sophistication with simplicity.
