About This Project

Harvest/Solar is a table lamp that uses a parabolic mirror in two ways. Firstly the mirror serves as a sunlight collector to focus as much light as possible to charge a battery via a small solar panel. Secondly the reflective mirror bowl serves as a lampshade to direct the LED generated light. By switching between sunlight collection and light generation the product harvests the sunlight to generate artificial light by one flip of light module.
