It's been taking me quite a while to get my head around what to do next with interval, due to my lack of success with the first attempt. So far I have decided that I want to revert to my original idea of combining the mdf with lighting effects, but in a far FAR less complicated manner! As the purpose of interval was to create a piece of furniture etc reflecting the design intent of the main project, I have decided that I want to base my piece on the same weedy scorpionfish that I used to inspire my DDI design.
From here I decided that my best idea was a lamp for use within the club on tables and around the lounge areas. That way it can be stylish, functional and not too big a project to build. I started off trying to sketch a kind of 'ribbed' version of the fish, and while I like the effect of it, there will be far too many connection issues involved and thus far too complicated.
I then thought that I could do a series of layers to form a shape, in which the skeleton and skin would be separated, I so far like this idea the most, however I am not quite decided on a shape, although so far I lean most strongly to the series of 'triangles' at the bottom of the series of sketches above. It would be mirrored, so that 2 triangles would meet at the top point, and perhaps be adjustable. I am also strongly considering making an opposing pair of lamps (given that I have the funds to do so) one will be of a natural/organic flowing style, as shown in the above image, the other will be more rigid and structural in appearance. Still to be resolved however is the base on which these forms shall sit... more to come on that matter.
