Frank Etc.’s Dragonfly Lamp has the ability to illuminate in different directions, angles, and strengths, using a flexible light to “sculpt” the surroundings through rotation joints and free-moving light wings.
The Dragonfly Lamp has recently been awarded a 2022 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
The lamp itself is a shapeshifter, ranging from a discrete monolith when closed, to expressive gesturing illumination functionality when used.
In its starting position, the three light wings are discretely integrated with the main body.
Each wing has a slight spring-loaded functionality. By gently pressing, it will pop out enough so that it comfortably can be moved in any position.
Within each axis, the starting position is mechanically marked with a notch, to let it line up for closing through a small click.
On each wing, there are individual controls for light strength and an on/off switch.
Holding down longer on one single control will regulate all three light sources.
While the core structure is aluminum-alloy, the outer body consists of three identical body parts, making future upgrades in color and material easy.
Energy-sufficient LEDs are used with white light 6000 K for most “true to life,” illumination of art pieces, paintings, and pictures.
The LED strip is covered with semi-transparent optics in the PC for the diffusion of the light.
