Glowing Ripple _ Paper Strip Lighting Fixture
This lighting fixture is crafted from overlapping paper strips, forming a dynamic, organic teardrop-like silhouette. Its layered structure creates an interplay of light and shadow, delivering a soft, diffused glow that enhances the ambiance of any space. The design emphasizes simplicity and elegance, making it a perfect centerpiece for modern interiors.

For this to be made out of paper - each stripe needs to be a developable surface (meaning - capable of unrolling into a flat sheet) , which is an additional restriction that should be followed during the design process.
There is a glitch in the levels that cause the model to create unsustainable winding for fabrication. I like how varied you can get with the design but if the strips are to be cut from a thin medium like paper or plastic, you'd need some sort of support structure to allow resisting sag due to gravity. Something simple like a wire, or radial fins to support the strips in place would be needed. Watch out when exporting too small as the geometry can become unusable.
