3D-printed collapsing cube structure, and, OK, “lamp,” if you insist

This delightful deployable spaceframe was designed by Studio Dror. It’s called Volume.MGX and was printed via selective laser sintering (SLS). I guess setting it over a light bulb and calling it a “lamp” makes for better video than setting a piece of glass on it and calling it a “table.” Still, fun to watch it squish and un-squish.
