Short Description:
(picture: TNT prototype)
We life in the digital times, personal messages go to so many mediums, all faster and easier then the old fashion post card. But maybe therefore nothing can beat the postcard when it comes to the personal message of it!
In order to keep this form of personal messaging alive we have to get more out of it. The postcard has to come of from his dusty spot above the fireplace.
By folding the postcard we can put shine some new light on this old fashion peace of paper!
I came up with the following application's:
moving card-lamp
A common attribute in a house where people just moved in is the naked lamp bulb. Help your friend to get some more atmosphere in there new house by sending them a colourful moving card-lamp, so they feel at home instantly by walking around the all these personal messages from their friends.
birthday card-cap
Birthday's come and go, sometimes only the cards on the wall tell you you made it another year!
With the birthday card-cap you can walk around all day celebrating your birtday with your favorite bearthday card on the top of your head! (the one with the most beatifull card wins!)
material: PP sheet
production: Laser cutting
(challenged to create more forms and applications by using the laser cutter?)
