The shape of Cradle's stand was inspired by the setting of pearls in a ring.

Cradle Entryway Lamp
Cradle is an entryway floor light designed to fit the Ligne Roset brand. It delights the user by gently bathing the entryway in a warm glow. It gradually brightens in response to the users touch. Prototyping was a major focus for this project.
The CAD model was generated in Alias 2011 and rendered using Showcase and Photoshop. The prototype's stand is made of 1/2" steel rod, which I bent, welded, and polished. The electronics inside the painted acrylic sphere are controlled by an Arduino, using code that I wrote. The presentation posters were laid out in Illustrator.
