Concept: This lamp unit is 'camouflaged' in it's purpose. In the evening, the leaves/ tiers of the lamp can be unfolded so as to create a net/ tent in which one can sleep. The net itself is made from mosquito netting. This lamp unit does also serve as an actual lamp. The illumination of the lamp however will be provided by either LED lights, Fiber Optics, EL (Electroluminescent) wire, or phosphorescent materials.
Concept Update: To create a 'transformer" light. To transform a classic PH 5 & PH 50 Poulsen light into a classic PH Artichoke light through the use of mathematically generated folding and pleating patterns. The pleated material will be the netting (or, possibly the mesh from the Dew Harvesting Concept #1
Possible Materials: Acrylic sheet or cardboard, day-glo string, glow in the dark paint, mosquito netting
