English	The "Skyscraper Floor Lamp" is inspired by city high-rises. The grid light symbolizes work, life, and hope, its brightness fluctuating like life's ups and downs. Each building conceals the iron's coldness, the light's warmth, and human resilience. The lamp is primarily aluminum, cut and welded via CNC technology into a structure resembling a building's steel frame. The silver aluminum exudes an architectural chill, but the built-in spherical light source diffuses layered light through the mesh, warming the city like the lighting of each household.
Native	“樓”的灵感来自于城市中的高楼大厦。格子间的光，是工作，是生活，也是希望。灯光有亮、有弱、有灭，人生有起、有稳、有伏。铁的冰冷，光的温暖，人的不懈，都隐藏在一栋栋楼中。 “樓”呈现给我们最纯粹的结构主义，仅通过结构来体现造型和光效。 “樓”的主要材料是铝，通过CNC切割与焊接，组装成如楼层钢架般的穿插结构。银白色的铝给人冰冷的建筑感，但内置的球型灯源透过网格扩散出具有层次感的灯光，仿佛每家每户灯光，给予城市的温暖。我们一直在寻找一种设计的方式，在数字化，人工智能化浪潮袭来的当下，我们是否会想起最初的设计呢？在科技水平愈发高端的今天，科技产品越来越多，所有的功能都得到了集成。我们想做最基础的设计，“樓”就是我们实践的结果。我们尝试去使用单纯的结构还原灯光的本质，不依靠复杂的光电结构或是编程技术，让结构为其实现光效，让结构服务于造型，让造型呈现出结构，让所及之处没有多余，回归本质，回归纯粹。
