solas
Co-Creators: Nicole Chance, Maggie Gibbens + Jack Buehler
This was a completely collaborative project, with each person touching on each part of the process.
Objective: How can we create a lighting piece & brand that is functional, modern, and unexpected while blending natural and manmade materials?
→ branding + print assets
→ photography
→ product sketching
→ production (soldering, woodworking)
→ user testing + trend/demographic research
Project Result: SOLAS sold all 15 lamps in less than 24 hours — and was the first of 4 products to completely sell out at the public pop-up shop.
