Form

Governing form were the constraints placed upon the project of the market wants juxtaposed with the material properties of the chosen material. Rigid construction and heat and fire concerns determined this material as the most appropriate, given the mass production application targeted.

From the target market involved heavily with a hands on aspect within their lives, an allen key/ screw system was used to not only suffice the markets tactile wants, but to give a permanence to the final product.

Finish and peripherals were formed to suit the aesthetic of the target market, where the distinct appeal of polished aluminium grounds the Star Lamp form and gives a luxurious feel to the overall composition.
