The inspiration for 'The Geodesic Sphere' lamp shade stems from the ancient Greeks' love of geometry. Although it isn't strictly a Platonic Solid it feels like a continuation of this family of 3D shapes.
This 3D printed lamp shade is huge! A sphere of 40cm in diameter, it will become a feature of even very large rooms. It is made up of 17 printed components, 2 Pentagons, 5 Diamonds and 10 Hexagons.
The design takes advantage of the 3D print process to create large, strong hollow parts that weigh a lot less than you would think [Assembled the Sphere is less than 900g], therefore it is safe to hang on ceiling lamp wire without reinforcement. Ours has been hanging for over a year and has survived a mild earthquake!
This product has been designed for an E27 lampholder [40mm diameter]
To complete assemble this product you will need 30x M4 x 16mm long wood screws similar to this:
