This lamp is really fasinating to me since it uses laser cutting on acrylic to make the design. Using our resources at school we could make an awesome variation of this with whatever design I want.
I like how this lamp plays with the shape of the lamp head to create a flower shape. It also utilizes the bottom of the lamp very well since it has depth to it and you can use it as a small storage space for ur airpods, rings, earrings, necklaces.
I enjoy how this lamp explores the idea of a floating bulb since it adds more dimension to the lamp and it becomes a lot more visually pleasing
I like how this lamp doubles as a necklace holder. It can also be used for earphones or small wires and has a big space at the bottom to hold other small items
I love how this lamp has a strawberry form because not often you see lamps in various shapes and it adds a lot of uniqueness to it!
