From prototype to paper product.  This past week I completed the Nautilus lamp I designed with inspiration from this Nautilus lamp, by New Zealand designer Rebecca Asquith. This project was an exploration into paper computing, and making switches using an LED , copper tape and a 3Volt battery.  Everything else was made out of paper–it’s amazing what you can do with a few simple components.   I look forward to making multiple sizes of this and maybe exploring different shapes.

Prototype and Final
