Exploring the Design Process Behind the PHÓS Wall Lamp

The interview explores how the project connects digital fabrication with cultural references, transforming traditional visual patterns into contemporary lighting design. Produced through 3D printing, PHÓS translates embroidery-inspired geometries into a luminous structure where light becomes an integral part of the design narrative.

Through this project, Lampropoulou investigates how heritage, technology and design research can coexist within contemporary objects. The layered geometry of the lamp allows light to pass through the surface, creating changing patterns that evoke both textile traditions and digital structures.

The interview also highlights the role of 3D Season as a design studio focused on the intersection of design, storytelling and additive manufacturing, exploring new ways of expressing cultural memory through contemporary production techniques.

A Few Words About the Designer

Greek product designer Sophia Lampropoulou, founder of 3D Season, was recently featured on the international design platform Muse.World following recognition at the London Design Awards.

The article titled “Where Heritage Meets 3D Printing: The Work of Sophia Lampropoulou” highlights Lampropoulou’s design approach, which combines digital fabrication, cultural narratives and contemporary product design.

Through the work of 3D Season, Lampropoulou explores how 3D printing technologies can reinterpret traditional forms, memories and cultural references into modern wearable and product design.

This international publication presents selected projects that bridge heritage and digital manufacturing, reflecting an ongoing research process around materials, structure and storytelling through design.
