The goal of this project was to design a flatpack lamp made out of only white 0.5mm thick Polypropylene sheets and a steel wire of 4.5mm thick.
For the shape and look of the lamp, I took inspiration from flowers. To be more specific I looked at the shape of water lilies and the interesting way they open and close depending on how much light they are getting.
This is the same feeling I wanted to achieve with this lamp

The verry first step to making this lamp is to cut out al the peices out of PP sheets.

I used a simple white sheet with 2mm thickness but you could change it to whatever color you would want. The thickness can also be changed.

After everything is cut out I could start assembling.

Because of the flatpack design the parts of the lamp were quit easy to assemble.

The "flower petals" that make up the bulk of the lamp are the first step.

After I finished this step I could start assembling the rings that will hold them in place.

To secure both ends of every ring I used tabs that were cut out of the rest materials I had after cutting out the main parts.

The third step is to assemble the base. This part consist out of several rings that are have been laser cut out of the rest peices of PP sheet.

Once all the separate parts were assembled I could put them all together to create the completed lamp.

To still be able to give the lamp some degree of adaptability the upper ring can be turned upside down to change the way and the amount of light that the lamp produces.
