LUMINESCENCE.

Final Luminaire

For my final model, I used one magazine that was still bound and cut it in a way so that when the pages were folded in, there was a hollow center to place the bulb.

TRIAL RUNS

This was my first rendition. It was made from two magazines but there was no where to place the bulb and was too dense to allow enough light to penetrate through the pages.


For my second try, I decided to only use a select number of pages to allow more light to filter through. But it wasn't quite what I imagined and was too flimsy, and all of the light poured out of the top. I then resorted back to my original idea, and made changes to make it work.
