Inspired by the brilliance of copper in design engineering, product designer Péter Molnár has conceived a unique lighting system, Mano, which will utilize copper and OLED light tapes all the way through its creation. The interior light design deduced from usage of mathematical minimal surfaces has a curious look and is deliberated to accommodate an array of lighting system arranged in any desired layout.
The Hungarian designer uses organic light emitting diode (OLED) flexible strips that is powered by 12 V in designing the Mano. The light strip skillfully hides the wiring within the system enhancing its outward show. The Mano has a copper body of cubic dimensions 150x200x200. The high-quality conductivity, exclusive visual traits and a varied surface rendering of copper makes it the ideal material for designing Mano.
By using a geometrical Schwarz-H surface, Péter built an entire column design. Following that, he manipulated a slice plane of the design to obtain the shape to fit the geometry of a copper product. Each Mano light comes with a dual connector on the top and bottom as marked in the visuals. In doing so, the power can be easily conveyed throughout the column of the entire light system offering stability and ease of operation. The columns of such lighting system can be placed adjacently or in columns in a varied design pattern held together with special buckles for steadiness.
