Future Antique Chandelier

Future Antique Chandelier is a prototype of future hardware design, sustainable and future electronics of heirloom.

Whenever the user turn on/off the switches and user the different modes, one of the strips are oxidised automatically for a short time. (for the documentation, the oxidation is accelerated). This allows users to construct unique pattens on the lamp shade leaving traces how the users used it. The lamp shade is made of copper that when it’s oxidised, it changes the colors from darker brown to patina.
