Cove Light:
Cove is a lighting project that explores the interplay of form and functionality through the creation of a slotted wooden pendant light. The design leverages the intricacies of digital modelling with natural materials to achieve geometric harmony and warm ambient lighting.
Role & Process: Conceptualize and develop a 3D form using 2D sheet materials. Utilize Rhino to create and loft the design, develop laser cutting patterns in Adobe Illustrator, and complete precision cuts in the Digital Fabrication Lab. Conduct iterative testing, refine the form based on results, and finalize the pendant light for production.
Creating slotted form: Rhino
Laser cutting pattern: Adobe Illustrator
