"The entire body of the lamp functions as a lenticular lens, using the fine, horizontal ridges of the 3D printing process as the optical array."
"QUQU went in the complete opposite direction and made those 0.2mm or 0.3mm ridges the star of the show. Each concentric line acts as a cylindrical lens, refracting light that passes through the lamp's wall."
"This is a genuinely sharp piece of design thinking that elevates the manufacturing process itself into an aesthetic feature, rather than something to be hidden."
"The effect would fall completely flat with the wrong material. A standard PLA or PETG filament would be too opaque."
QUQU's Nishiki lamp innovatively applies lenticular printing principles to a three-dimensional form, transforming a simple light source into a dynamic visual experience. The lamp's body acts as a lenticular lens, utilizing the horizontal ridges from the 3D printing process to create shifting patterns of color. This design choice highlights the texture of the lamp, turning what is typically seen as a flaw into a key aesthetic feature. The choice of material is crucial, as standard filaments would not achieve the desired translucency and effect.
