Description

The process to create this light-shade was driven by the admiration for the materials used in the 3D printing. The Nylon along with the building technique produces an almost ceramic like quality, with clear depth and a characteristic grain we loved. When thin and without internal light, the material acts similar to a Japanese paper screen; playing with diffusion and transparency. In combination with the LED module, the surface seems to become incandescent and fills the room with a warmth similar to sunlight filtering through leaves.
