STATEMENT PIECE
FOCUS
Inspired on the grip of social media and phone addiction.
This unique abstract-human shaped lamp is a statement piece that represents feelings and body postures involved in scenarios where you get completely immersed in your phone, getting overstimulated as a result.
Focus is designed to use the flashlight of your phone as its light source, creating reflections with captivating patterns. The provoking effect is inspired by the aesthetic of dopamine, a hormone released during overstimulation, evoking satisfactory feelings.
Then, it is a conversation starter of how excessive phone usage can affect you and invites people to put away their phones to disconnect themselves into an immersive experience.
