Flexible Tripod Fixtures

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Axis Light Can be Adjusted by Swiveling its Supportive Sticks

— September 14, 2012 — Art & Design
With your first glance at the Axis Light by Castor Design, you might wonder just how it stands without toppling over. The floor lamp's posture takes a significant slant and its support system seems to be a pair of comparatively insubstantial stakes.

The anodized aluminum piece is, of course, quite secure. Two holes in the pole are penetrated by the smaller rods, and with the three of them leaning in against each other, the structure remains stable. The dowels can even be shifted within the mutually supportive frame to alter the angle and height of the primary component.

To change the direction of the glow from the Axis Light without moving the entire thing, you can guide the notch below the bulb from one side to the other for a 180-degree range.
Trend Themes
1. Flexible Lighting Fixtures - Innovative support structures using lightweight materials and adjustable parts create opportunities for flexible and customizable lighting solutions.

2. Furniture - The furniture industry could explore the incorporation of swiveling and adjustable parts in their designs to create more functional and versatile products.
3. Manufacturing - The manufacturing industry could take advantage of the use of anodized aluminum in their production processes, creating more sustainable and durable products across various industries.
