Venus Fly Trap Garden Light, Raven Lovette Oct 2017

Venus Fly Trap Garden Light, Raven Lovette

Interior Design

The design will be a modern twist on the solar power garden light. The solar powered light will mimic that of a Venus Fly Trap. The light will remain closed during the daylight, while the solar panels are powered up, and as night falls the fly trap will open allowing light to shine through. The light fixture will be made of sheet metal that can sustain outdoor conditions. The flexible light stand will allow for adjusting the fixture to direct the light in any desired direction.


Before The Storm, Merrie Luton Oct 2017

Before The Storm, Merrie Luton

Interior Design

The concept for this lighting fixture came from the curved and almost ridged edge look of an incoming intense storm cloud. The organic lines create an interesting pattern in the sky, which when turned into a lighting piece, would make for a cool shadowed  effect and pattern in the room. This light would be used for a mood lighting effect to help with relaxation, but also be something of interesting and thought provoking to view both as the fixture itself and with the lights on.

Design Philosophy

My, design philosophy is based on the belief that every space should reflect the needs and personality of those in it.

It is not enough to have a luxurious space; instead a well-designed interior must give the user a sense of comfort and livability along with being aesthetically beautiful. It is of …
