Specimen 001 is an experimental lighting object designed for Studio Othrea. Its organic geometry explores the relationship between sculptural form, translucent material, and light.
Specimen 001 is an experimental lighting object designed for Studio Othrea. Its organic geometry explores the relationship between sculptural form, translucent material, and light.
Digitally modeled and produced through FDM 3D printing using recycled PETG, the object investigates how material texture and layered structures influence the perception of light.
