Aftermath... as well as other things..


I must say that a day after handing everything... I'm still a little dazed by it all. Starting to consider things in a different light...


But to better things, been researching lighting just for knowledge for when i make my mini chandelier. I'm not going to do vasts amounts.. but see how different lights achieve that wow factor. This is more for my own enjoyment more than anything else, i don't want to make my light like a studio project, that just produces stressed results, since there is none commenting on my every move and then MARKING it.. i think i will thoroughly enjoy my light and then hang it in my room when it is done ^^


This light i have to post up... designed by Alice Van, it is a beautiful floor lamp made of a thick paper.. i could see it being easily done in polyprop for a more sturdy [and not to mention water proof] light, but i wonder how the light would interact with the surface.


The thing about this light that makes it outstanding is the different gradients that the light casts as it exits the shade... diffused through the material... as well as escaping through the gaps. Simply stunning.


[pity the electrical cable is in the picture... but it does add a kind of 'accidental' charm to it]
