Design Inspiration - Neuron Synapse - A Natural Collision for Information Exchange (week 2)

January 30, 2018

Thinking about the idea of creating collision environments for a co-working space, made me think about one of the greatest net work systems that exist in nature: Our Brain. The idea that exchange of information in our brain is created within the Synapse between two neurons is a great metaphor, in my eyes, for a collision environment. A synapse - Definition A Synapse consists of a tiny gap between two nerves, with one nerve serving as the transmitter and the other as the receiver. When sending signals, the transmitting side of the synapse releases little packages of neurotransmitters, which traverse the gap and bind to receptors on the receiving side, completing the information relay Based on my topic of inspiration, I decide to re-make my original A3 mood board Graphic references to our brain network

Choosing a final Concept (Feb 10)

February 15, 2018

This is the final selection to develop next I call it -- the Synapse, inspired by the the brain synapse - the tiny gap between neurons that transmits information; the ultimate creator of connection; a task lamp that will b a main architectural participant in a simultaneous interior design project: The Synapse Co-working space. The task lamp itself will match a network of Synapse lighting that will be both decorative and functional. The idea for the Synapse task lamp is to have two functions and two parts. Function 1: A bottom table mount part and a top ceiling light are joint together with a magnetic connector. The purpose is to mark a territory by providing a visual definition of space and mood light. Function 2: The top ceiling part is separated from its bottom partner and angled to provide towards the desk top to provide task lighting for the user. Following are Design Challenges to consider for the next stage of deve...
