Design Shanghai Picks 2025

background

Flying

"Flying" is a table lamp inspired by the lightness of kites. Its structure uses parametric modeling to symbolize the dynamic movement and fluctuations of kites, while the lamp body is surrounded by lines of varying lengths—reminiscent of the undulating strings tugged by the flyer as the kite soars. When illuminated, these lines create a gradual light-shadow effect that transitions from darkness to brightness, mimicking the kite’s interplay with sunlight in mid-air. The lamp’s base integrates minimalist geometric forms, with the lampshade crafted from translucent acrylic to diffuse light softly—evoking the kite’s paper membrane glowing under the sun. This design not only captures the kite’s physical grace but also translates its spiritual freedom into a functional art piece, where technology and natural inspiration converge to "fly" light into everyday spaces.
