In collaboration with KeyShot and London-based interior brand Vitamin, we are launching our very own design & rendering competition. Vitamin will be releasing the original CAD from the product’s formulation 10 years ago, with 5 x K Lamps available to the winners and 2 x KeyShot Pro Licences, after being judged by a panel of top designers and industry leaders.
The Brief
The brief is simple, Vitamin would love to see how you would re-imagine the K-Lamp whilst retaining the lamps’ iconic identity, putting your twist on the product, whether that’s in its CMF or an environment you imagine for the lamp. It is totally up to you.
