Lotus-Shaped Smart Lamps

This 3D-Printed Lamp is Inspired By the Egyptian Lotus Flower

— August 13, 2021 — Art & Design
Khawarizm Studio has launched a gorgeous set of smart lamps that combine the wonders of modern technology with design cues inspired by ancient Egyptian cultural artefacts, specifically the Egyptian lotus flower.

The 'Ward,' lamp, named after the Arabic word for 'flowers,' is shaped like the Egyptian lotus, celebrated for being able to project stunning beauty even when it grows in dirty bodies of water, and regarded as a symbol of enlightenment and purity.

This 3D-printed smart lamp makes use of a smart LED-lighting mechanism that utilizes the Internet of Things, and also happens to be easy to use in conjunction with popular virtual home assistants. As a result, the 'Ward' lamp is responsive to orders pertaining to lighting functionality as well as colors.

By combining the efficiency and precision of 3D printing with the convenience of Internet of Things technologies and design language inspired by the Egyptian lotus flower, the 'Ward' lamp is truly worthy of being the Middle East's first 3D-printed smart lamp.
