Lamp Design & A Mobius Strip

Design a lamp hanging or standing around a 75 watt bulb. I chose to work with the shape of a mobius strip. The shape was inspired by me reading of Einstein’s Dreams. The Möbius strip is a surface with only one side and only one boundary component. The Möbius strip has the mathematical property of being non-orientable. It is also a ruled surface. It was discovered independently by the German mathematicians August Ferdinand Möbius. I attempted to widen the width of curtain sections of the plainer surface at which the bulb could fit into. The Möbius strip is one of the move difficult shapes to work with because the inside become the outside and vice versa.
