Lighthouse

Recently I was walking along the seashore and my gaze fell on a lighthouse. Its light penetrated the darkness, as if promising protection and comfort. This idea sank into my soul, and I wanted to transfer a part of it into everyday life.

This is how the idea was born to create a decorative lighthouse, but not just a statuette, but an object capable of coming to life, emitting light, like its real prototype. I imagined it about 40 cm high - large enough to become an accent in the interior, but at the same time compact and functional.

Work on the project began with sketches. I tried to preserve the classic forms: a massive base, a refined body and a neat lantern roof. The lighthouse had to be realistic, but simplified for ease of printing.

The most exciting stage was choosing a light source. The solution came naturally: I found decorative battery-powered candles
(ESBEN LED candle https://jysk.ua/dlya-domu/dekor/cvitlodiodni-svichki-led/led-svichka-esben-v25sm-2sht/upak) in the JYSK store.

Their soft, flickering glow was perfect for my project. I adapted the internal structure of the lighthouse so that the candle would fit perfectly, as if it were created especially for it.

When the model was printed on a 3D printer, I held it in my hands for the first time. This was the moment when the dream became reality. The lighthouse could now stand on any shelf, emitting the same cozy light that I saw on the horizon.

Now this lighthouse is not just a decorative element, but a symbol of inspiration, warmth and light that you can give to yourself and your loved ones.
