Oled Magic Tiles | Mauro Del Santo

MagicTiles: Lamp based on a kinetic synchronized mechanism composed of nine flat squares concurrently movable to expand or contract their layout. The system permits to adjust the light diffusion, given by the nine Oled framed into the squares. The shape of the mechanism inspired the design that perfectly fits the morphology and the modular nature of Oled. The prototype was developed as a floor lamp, but the system can also be applied to build hanging and table lamps. It can be offered in a variety of compositions. THE PROJECT Invited by +iso, a premier OLED consulting company, the designers Ely Rozenberg and Mauro Del Santo have been committed to interpret the OLED lighting technology through concepts focused to emphasize the quality and the novelty found in the newest devices family developed by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation. A dramatic cost-drop, substantial reliability, compelling performances and large scale production are the prominent qualities of MCC new wet-coating OLED family which have made the application design particularly intriguing and challenging. Besides the technical challenges, the new technology has brought also new stimulating design opportunities focusing the project on creating new aesthetics and exalting the extraordinary OLED panel morphology.
