The Helix - Modern Organic Desk Lamp
Elevate your workspace with a touch of organic geometry. This lamp is a perfect blend of modern art and functional lighting. Its fluid, sweeping curves and open-frame design make it more than just a light fixture—it's a statement piece for any desk or bedside table.
Aesthetics: A minimalist, dual-tone design featuring a sleek outer shell and a contrasting inner core.
Optimized for PETG: The form factor takes advantage of PETG’s durability and heat resistance, making it ideal for housing LED components.
Internal Cable Routing: Features a hollow path for clean and hidden wiring from the base to the light source.
Material: PETG (Highly recommended for heat resistance and its signature glossy finish).
Layer Height: 0.16mm – 0.2mm (To ensure the organic curves look smooth).
Infill: 15–20% (Gyroid infill works best for structural rigidity).
Walls/Perimeters: 3 for extra strength.
Supports: Required. Use "Tree Supports" in your slicer for easier removal and better surface finish on the overhangs.
LED Strip/Module: A flexible LED strip (Warm White 3000K is recommended for a cozy glow).
Power Supply: 12V DC adapter or a 5V USB module depending on your choice of LEDs.
Diffuser: (Optional) A thin strip of translucent white plastic or 3D-printed "Vase Mode" strip to soften the light.
Feed the wiring through the base before securing the LED strip.
For the best look, try a high-contrast color scheme (e.g., Marble White for the exterior and Galaxy Black for the interior).
The base is wide enough to add weights (like coins or small metal plates) if you want a more "premium" heavy feel.
