Halo: An old sketch idea evolving

Further proof that you can’t keep a good designer from creating . Here we have another example of the late night ideas that just won’t rest until they are designed. I call this, the Halo. Intended for pathway and small area lighting via LED technology, the Halo is clearly something from the future.

Designed with the intention of either cast or die-cast aluminum construction with a minimal 3 piece main body to reduce welding. 2 sizes available to allow the Halo to fit a wide variety of site lighting needs for almost any location.

Icosa Lamp

While playing a board game at a friend’s home I found myself intrigued by the simple yet complex shape of a 20 sided die. Geometrically speaking, an icosahedron, thus giving birth to my Icosa series. Originally the design intention was to have a 20 sided panel fixture however I found the wire frame of the fixture to be more interesting.

Initially created via a simple and singular 3D printed joint piece and acrylic rod cut to size at home the clear ease of simply cutting the rod longer to make a larger fixture became obvious. Scaling the size of the joint would also lend to larger diameter rod or tube allowing for larger size frames to be created. The simple idea of slipping rod into the joints also allows for a wide variety of wood, plastic or natural metal rods to be swapped out gives the Icosa a nearly endless combination of finishes.
