“Electricity is really just organized lightning.”
George Carlin

The lamp system was designed around the premise of structures found in Electric B Fields.
The light source acts as an emitter emulating a reaction and the shade is visualizing the field created.
With a few new simple rules, many new forms can be experimented and uniquely created.

RULES:
One light generates its own field pattern.
Different types of light may create different effects.
More than one light may result in volumetric interaction.

Philadelphia Outdoor Barrel Fireplace

2009-11-07T12:24:00.001-08:00

When its cold out, its kinda of the rage to have metal barrel fires on the streets of Philadelphia... well at least for the homeless...
By using a 5-axis laser cutter used in car manufacturing and metal barrels used in industrial storage, the hobo-chic design is transformed into a großartig fireplace that emanates the qualities of the city, wherever you decided to have a fire.
Soon to be produced in limit

On the train...

2008-12-13T09:24:00.001-08:00

3D Printing today consist of many products with generative geometric patterning... These topological hexagons and varying primary shapes seems to make the product out to be "unique" or "interesting"; Yet the relationship of the pattern to the product lacks meaning (except for "fad").
By combining the Louis XIV Chair and the city map of Paris, the patterning and the product have similar semantics. Stories of their union could be told or reinvented...
... Louis XIV's great disappearing act in Paris.
or
... Real ghost put a bed sheet over them to scary people, Louis XIV uses a map of Paris.

The design works in several ways:
First, it is a shell of the existing Louis XIV chair. It can function as a camouflage or protection of the chair. Also, it can exist as it own piece of furniture. Your able to sit upon the throne of Paris.

Note to Philipee Stark:
No apologies for the brouqueoisesqoepunked design in a friendly discourse; But rather, thank you for working out the details and dimensions of a wonderful chair!

After the Sketch Ideas, I wanted to have a controlling logic for the form. It has more constrain then then the sketch ideas but, the geometry can work together with the other forms. The logic comes from diagrams shown earlier for another project but it works with multiple possibilities. I have to generate all the probabilities but I will try just to laser cut these forms to see how they fit together.

As of this point, no further process will go into this project. But I have begun to think of ways to make the system learn and grow. The idea was originally based off of some non specific sketches. I am planning that there is a branching logic with micro decisions effecting site relationships. More of this will be determined later.
