Lightcycle

Last year a lighting design consultancy put on a competition as part of the Melbourne design festival.
It was called lightcycle, and you had to make a light, starting off with just a lampholder/cord assembly and a compact fluro lamp. This was my entry, the FforR lamp.
It works by recycling old acrylic from signs and old recessed fluorescent fittings. From there the material if applied to a simple framework. Its simplicity lets it be manufactured in a sheltered workshop. Alas I didn't win, but I had fun, and actually sold the light I entered on the night. Not a bad consolation.
Here are the rest of the entries.

I hope they put the comp on again.
