SHADOWS UP
Obstructive elements can be transformed into the object which can beautify the environment.
BUG ZAPPER, HOME APPLIANCE DESIGN
“Shadows Up” use photo catalyst to entice the insect then kill them. The old bug zappers create scaring explosions upon catching a fly. “Shadows Up” causes a sudden change of lighting in the environment, signaling the catch of the insect. The burst of light, form the close flash to fading subtle, is like a Venus’s-flytrap relaxing the grip of its leaves after devouring its victim.
RESEARCH
Asia has a lot of mosquitoes, with the economic growth; the demand for improvement in the quality of life is rising. Every household owns an electronic mosquito catcher. However, very few have been taken in to account the function and aesthetics that a mosquito capture lamp has.
NEW TYPE + AESTHETICS
New type has more advantages, but the current market does not have as many products that can have both the function and aesthetics.
(1) NEW TYPE:
Potocatalyst - Four sharp swords attracting and killing mosquitoes.
(2) AESTHETICS:
Form - The proportion is like the Venus's-flytrap but more sense of technology. It is like a beautiful sculpture.
HOW TO USE
Insect is enticed by inducements, and flies into “Shadows Up”. It goes throught the fan with suction, stuck in the box tray, and dies.The user just needs to clearn and remove the insect bodies regularly. The notch make user easy to hold the tray
