Clover Lamp
This project explores the intricate geometry and repetition found in a clover flower, translating its organic structure into a three-dimensional light fixture. By analyzing the natural patterns and forms of the specimen, the design process transforms botanical inspiration into an illuminated sculptural piece, capturing the delicate yet structured essence of the clover.
Shadow Models
Using the flower, I examined the intricacies to create shadow models

Flower Placement
Growth Pattern
3D Build
The concept takes note of the stacked tiers of flowers seen on a mature plant as well as the spiral growth pattern of the plant
Iterations
Three iterative builds allowed thorough experimentation with the final materials and mechanics
The armature allows light to diffuse onto the white acrylic plates
Build
cut plan- armature
The acrylic was laser-cut and assembled solely using joinery to attach the armature to the white plates
