Candy

Candy is a home 3D printer for children that prints edible shapes from candy granules. The machine is controlled by a mobile application, which allows the printing order, number and size of each model to be set. Three tanks hold three different candy flavours, so taste and colour can be combined in one print. The granules are heated, melted and formed through a nozzle. The body is made of plastic with a matte surface, and a transparent acrylic window opens by a spring switch to remove the finished candy. The design is inspired by the Chinese folk art of sugar figure blowing.

Time Lamp

Time Lamp is a table lamp with a timing function, shaped like a traditional hourglass. The lampshade is made of translucent acrylic with an optical grain and is joined by ultrasonic welding, so the light is spread evenly. Rotating the lampshade acts as the switch and selects a color temperature of 4200K or 3200K. A short touch of the button starts the timing mode, and a long touch keeps the light on. Gravity sensing and electronic slip rings let the shade turn without winding the wires. The design combines lighting with a reminder that time is passing.

Stoccolma

Stoccolma is a flexible wall lamp designed to move light where it is needed. The lamp is formed by two cables held in tension between four anchor points.

A circular brass disc holding an LED runs along the cables and can be turned by hand through 360 degrees. Stoccolma can light a corner, serve as a reading light beside a bed or illuminate a table. The structure removes the need for a separate power cable.
