Design Goal
Create a task lamp that offers direct and ambient light and has an interesting and unique operating system.
The lamp will offer a visual appeal even when not in use.
Goals:
Low energy use
Use dimmable LED lightbulbs
Simple yet unique operation
Capacitive touch control
Collapsible top that can angle with a pin joint
Low- Cost Scalable Production
Use 3D printing for small scale production
Combination of aluminum spinning and injection molding for larger scale

Manufacturing
3D printed lamps similar to the prototype can be made to order
Small Scale
Large Scale
The lamp base and shade can be shaped through spun aluminum while the neck piece and internal pivot joint can be injection molded
Spun aluminum would allow the entire lamp to have capacitive touch
