PTERO
2021
PTERO is a table lamp that can shift from providing warm ambient lighting to full brightness task lighting suitable for a multitude of environments.
Prototyping:
I used a foam core prototype to quickly understand the way the two halves will rotate as well as the wiring pattern for the two sockets.
Considerations:
- Pinch points 
- Pivot point 
- Gravitational force 
- Wiring 
- Connection point 
- Range of movement in material
