Lion Rock is a 495-metre-high mountain in Hong Kong, located in Sha Tin District, between Kowloon Tong of Kowloon and Tai Wai of the New Territories.
The rock represents Hong Kong's spirit, meaning 'Never Give Up'. It is because, in the 60s and 70s, people who lived under Lion Rock had the lowest level of working labour. However, they used their hard work and innovative thinking to change their lifestyle and become upper-class citizens. The rock encourages the people of Hong Kong to work hard and never give up.
I created this Lion Rock lighting to illuminate and perpetuate Hong Kong Lion Rock’s spirit. I designed the lighting shade, which resembles sculpting the Lion Rock shape onto the light bulb. The lighting shade is like combining a Lion Rock sculpture with a light bulb.
In the production of 3D printing, I created a downside shape resembling a polygon diamond cut, which features the visual language of a diamond. It represents the resilience and toughness of the Hong Kong people.
The lighting shade is easy to rest the LED light holder for lighting.
