MADE WITH SIMONA CIARDO (simona_ciardo@studenti.naba.it simona.ciardo98@gmail.com) LFT, literally Lamp For Temporary and acronym (Italian) of Lampada - Frontalina - Torcia, is a dynamic portable lamp dedicated to satisfying various temporary situations and needs, in order to always guarantee optimal light for those who use it. Depending on how the light is directed or detached from the body, LFT can be used as a direct beam torch, as a diffused light lamp or as a head light. The removable, adjustable and resealable elastic bands allow for practical hooking for multiple sizes and situations (to be hooked to more or less thick branches, various head or body sizes, various objects, etc.) as well as being easily replaceable in case of wear. The body acts as a container for the elastic (when the head is detached from the body, the latter could be closed with a second cap that can be easily designed and also inserted into the body when not needed) while the base serves as a rechargeable powerbank. Born as a lamp for external situations, it is also optimal for internal use (considering that most people have torches and headlamps and lamps in their homes). Being easily disassembled into its parts, it favors the correct disposal and recycling of materials (the prototype is entirely molded in recycled plastic tpe and pla). The materials, colors and dimensions/proportions may vary, also playing on possible customization (the prototype was also modulated according to the light source we could use, but it can vary)
