Inspiration
Through an iterative design process involving sketching and testing, I have achieved the best possible form for this specific project, drawing inspiration from the Montreal Olympic Stadium. The distinctive shape of the stadium strongly influenced the form of my design. By exploring various design solutions through sketching, I was able to refine the form, ensuring it not only resonates with the iconic architecture of the stadium but also meets the unique needs of the project.
THE IDEA: Aesthetic with Function
The Ovid is a multi-functional LED desk lamp: Mood Lamp and Reading Desk Light. Dimmable reading light fixture for home with 3 brightness levels. It is controlled by a remote controller and adjustable light mode, and auto-timer are applied. The head part can be manipulated to activate ‘read mode’. Light brightness and atmosphere can be manipulated as a user’s customization.
Final Prototype
The name of this product is derived from the renowned Greek poet Ovid and embodies its remarkable journey of evolution and functional ingenuity that operates in a surprising manner. These attributes bear resemblance to Ovid’s celebrated literary work, “The Metamorphoses,” which illustrates epic transformation and miraculous metamorphosis.
