The portable lamp emerges as an extension of the clinic s architectural concept: a space for healing that accompanies protects, and transforms Its shape is no coincidence; when viewed from above, its base with six undulations visually represents the six pillars of the therapeutic process that structure the clinic

Companionship

Sensory naturalness

Healing

Air / Warmth

Water

Emotional regulation

Each wave is like a capsule of care surrounding the center: the light That light symbolizes the moment a person begins to feel better, regaining their vitality The lamp’s design then embraces the light just as the space embraces the patient

A Light That Embraces

This lamp was conceived as more than a functional object it is a presence shaped by care Its organic form free of sharp edges or abrupt lines flows through soft transitions and embracing volumes that echo the architectural language of the clinic: enveloping gentle, and protective Just as a resting body naturally curves, the lamp mirrors that posture of serenity Its light does not seek to dominate but to accompany offering a warm diffuse glow reminiscent of filtered sunlight acting as a metaphor for the kind of attention that supports without overwhelming Viewed from above the lamp resembles an open flower or a regenerating cell both powerful symbols of transformation and life one evoking beauty and openness, the other healing and renewal Its portability responds to a contemporary need for emotional and spatial flexibility adapting easily to different moments and moods a quiet conversation a reflective pause, or a waiting period becoming a gentle, empathetic companion within the therapeutic space

Transmitting the Concept From the Architectural to the Intimate

From macro to micro

Just as the clinic s architecture was designed to envelop, support, and gently guide those undergoing a therapeutic process this lamp brings that same principle to a more intimate, domestic scale Placed on a coffee table, it becomes a small refuge of light a warm presence that not only illuminates, but also invites rest, introspection, and conscious pause In its minimal scale, it mirrors the same embracing gesture of the architectural project, as if each table were transformed into a space of care

Transmitting the Concept From the Architectural to the Intimate Volume inspired by the body and the act of caring

The undulating form is not an aesthetic whim; it arises from observing the human body in the process of healing Its soft curves evoke relaxed muscles, resting skin and deep breathing This organic geometry conveys comfort aligns with biological rhythms and reminds us that healing is not linear it’s fluid and sensitive

Transmitting the Concept From the Architectural to the Intimate

Symbolic structure: breath, energy, and vital flow

The openings at the top do more than allow light to escape they are a metaphor for breath They let air pass just as the body takes in and releases what it needs They represent the vital energetic flow that every physiotherapy session seeks to rebalance It's a gesture that reminds us that healing also means letting go
