Mango is an extremely popular fruit in Taiwan. Taiwanese learn to prepare a mango by slicing the flesh of it in a crosshatch pattern. It then can be inverted to expose the scored cubes, revealing the juicy and lovely sweet taste of summer. Inspired by Taiwanese’ love of mangoes, as well as the interaction between human and fruit, I applied this preparing method in lighting design.
With a simple downward push by the user, the lighting fixtures are pushed out from the prior clustered mode, and unveiling its expressive and atmospheric appearance.
