Surfboard Nightlight

Year: 2025 - Present

After seeing my older brother's new apartment, I noticed he had everything but a nice nightlight. I figured I should make him one. Simple elegant, and only on when someone walks by

Surfboard Nightlight

After a quick brainstorm, we came up with an original idea: a simple bathroom light shaped like a surfboard. Something simple and clean, that would first be functional while also looking good.

Once I printed the first prototype, I realized the light was too bright and would also reveal any internal cavities if present. After working in Fusion 360 for the first few prototypes, I realized it would be a lot easier in Rhino /Grasshopper, where I could make quicker tweaks between prototypes.
