Table Lamp

Thursday, 31 October 2024

U

The U table lamp blends art and design with its clean aesthetic in the shape of an inverse u made of frost and opalescent acrylic. It draws inspiration from the passions of the designer, her academic background and from artists who mastered color and light. Emphasizing its expressive element, color, it compels people to see colors in new ways combining emotions with forms and blending art and design. The lamp works with an e27 chrome lamp socket covered by the opalescent acrylic that works as a diffuser and creates a graphic effect.

Hexa

The goal of Hexa design was to achieve a lamp that provides the lighting of the architectural space in two broad and localized modes, has the ability to expand in the space, and improves the quality of the space in terms of aesthetics. A Hexa is one-third of a full hexagon. This division increases the ability of Hexa in the variety of compositions and expansion. The form of the design follows a geometric pattern that is inspired by "Girih" and "miniature"; in traditional Iranian architectural decorations.

Mobius

The Mobius strip is a mathematical object of interesting physical and mathematical qualities, constructed with only a single side and a single edge. The design is an embodiment of infinity, creating a feeling of fluidity, of never-ending movement. Its shape allows this piece to blend form and function. The Mobius Chair is a reflection of the beautiful relationship between mathematics and design.

Smart Lock

Smart Lock is a smart door lock with a remote visual intercom, designed for home entrances. The lock supports several unlocking methods, including face recognition and finger vein recognition. Three-dimensional structured light face recognition helps prevent access with photographs or videos. The front of the handle reads fingerprints and the back reads finger veins, so the door opens with a grip. The lock case is made of aviation aluminium with a tempered glass cover panel. A cloud connection allows users to check the lock status and to set its functions remotely.
