Brief Design a concept for an installation that is bound to a specific a public space at the school. Construct a functional mock-up.
Concept Forget all what you’ve learned in school during biology classes. This plant-like lamp has struck roots in a dark corner and feeds on sunlight. The light that hits the floor by a nearby doorway slows down and floats seeking the bare roots. When the door is opened and light rushes in the lamp-plant lights up as a welcoming gesture.
Evaluation The installation was functional for 2 weeks in the hallway to the cantina and was given positive feedback from a lot of the passing students. The school granted the project an “A” grade.
