The Ryokan Lamp is a tribute to the timeless aesthetics of Japanese paper lanterns, reimagined through modern parametric engineering.
This model is a study in controlled harmony. By manipulating the depth and intensity of its rhythmic ridges, you can transition the shade from a nearly smooth, minimalist column to a deeply sculpted, architectural piece. The horizontal bands are specifically designed to catch light in gradients, mimicking the soft, diffused glow of traditional washi paper while maintaining the structural durability of 3D-printed geometry.
Part of the MODYLO Ecosystem This design uses the MODYLO Unified DNA. All parts are cross-compatible with other elements in the collection. To learn how to mix, match, and stack this lamp with other styles, visit the MODYLO Master Reference Page.
Customization
The Ryokan is fully parametric, allowing you to fine-tune the oscillation of the shade to match your interior.
Key Parameters:
Base Height & Diameter: Define the proportions of the stable foundation.
Lampshade Height & Diameter: Set the overall scale of your light source.
Effect Depth (0% – 100%): Controls the vertical scale of the valleys. Increase this value for large, sweeping waves or decrease it for a tighter, more compact texture.
Effect Intensity (0% – 100%): Controls the horizontal peak. At 0%, the surface is nearly smooth; at 100%, the peaks become sharp and eccentric, creating dramatic shadows.
Note: This model is designed to be Customized, not Resized. This ensures that the internal threads and the integrated cable path for the Bambu Lab LED kit remain perfectly functional.
Printing Instructions
Lampshade: Isolate on its own plate and enable Vase Mode (Spiralize Outer Contour). Set bottom layers to 0.
Base: Includes a dedicated cutout for clean wire management. Use the Arachne wall generator for the best structural results.
Material Recommended: For the classic Ryokan look, use a matte white or natural translucent PLA to maximize the soft diffusion of the ridges.
Explore the MODYLO Lamp Collection
The Ryokan Lamp is just one part of a larger modular world. Every edition uses the same "Unified DNA," so you can mix, match, and stack parts across different styles to suit your needs.
Oscilla Lamp: A modular lighting assembly utilizing a light puck. It features a wave-inspired base and a spiral-printed shade that creates rhythmic light patterns.
Tessela Lamp: An architectural design featuring a repeating hexagonal matrix on the shade, paired with a minimalist Smooth Base for a clean, modern look.
Aeolian Lamp: An organic design featuring fluid, wind-swept waves on the shade for a dynamic and natural light diffusion.
Smooth Lamp: For those seeking the ultimate minimalist aesthetic, this version features both a smooth lampshade and a smooth base, offering clean lines and soft, even light diffusion.
Basalt Lamp: A structural, hexagonal honeycomb design that creates a striking interplay of light and shadow through its architectural geometry.
Crest Lamp: A bold, architectural design featuring deeply recessed hexagonal cells that create a rhythmic honeycomb effect when illuminated.
Vertex Lamp: A sophisticated design featuring a dense triangular tessellation that creates a crystalline, multi-faceted light effect.
Stacked Lamp: A generative design that uses a randomizer to shift layer offsets, ensuring every generated version has its own unique, asymmetrical silhouette.
Ryokan Lamp: A parametric homage to traditional lanterns, offering complete control over the depth and intensity of its rhythmic, light-diffusing ridges.
