Piu - Lasergun

February 12th 2016

My first and last design of an arm.

The project initiators described it as follows: «Laser guns are not only of interest to die hard Star Wars fans. The two young designers, René Odermatt and Mario Frank, discovered the idea for an unconventional candlestick by looking at the basic form. But even after five creative and feasible drafts, they were still felt full of creative urge. Odermatt and Frank decided to pursue the project and develop a form study. Sometimes organic, very minimalistic, classy, from another world, and in certain aspects, a tribute to the earlier styles seen in design history.... everything is possible. The drafts, however, should never remind you of real weapons. Today, Jasper Morrison models as well as models of several other renowed designers and artists are parts of this series.»
