The Almond Lamp
The Almond Lamp is a sculptural, self-supporting light that transforms folded sheet material into shade, structure, and illumination in one unified form.
Built by hand
Not AI, automated or outsourced.
A real object, refined by craft.
The Almond Lamp is currently developed through direct, hands-on prototyping as part of an ongoing process of refinement. Working this way allows proportion, structure, and assembly to be tested directly in the object itself. As the project evolves, I am exploring fabrication methods that will bring the final product to an even higher level of precision and consistency.
