SOLAR HYBRID

The goal is to have a small portable lamp, very versatile in its use.

It is magnetic, clinging, hanging, and is used everywhere, the expression of mobility for light.

It is recharged on its base by two solar panels but can also be connected to the mains, making it a real hybrid product .

Hybrid mainly because the amount of sunshine differs depending on the season and country.

Concept Design (Pool). Market launch in 2013.

*UME is a trademark of Yaohualux

COPY MAKERS
letter to « Mister DINGTAO »

In the industrial world, it happens more and more often that we come across copies of products which we have designed, once they have been manufactured and commercialised with success.

The latest case : products developed by and for RIVADOSSI (Italy) copied almost identically by DINGTAO (China), which were discovered at Canton trade fair.

From the point of view of the designer, who came up with the idea in the first place, it might not be that important “in the form” (what is an idea after all ?) but it becomes unacceptable “in substance”, because we are actually dealing with spoliation ant a total lack of respect for other people.
