the pod
Lasalle College of the Arts | 2018
The Pod is a lamp, the brightness of which can be changed according to the user’s mood. It is made based on the designer Jasper Morrison’s philosophy:
‘produce everyday objects for everyone's use, make things lighter, not heavier, softer not harder, inclusive rather than exclusive, and generate energy, light, and space’.
​
The simple, yet useful product is designed to replicate a lampshade, making its use instinctive and subconscious.
Material: Plastic
Size: 5” x 5” x 9”
