One way to defeat the depression is to get out-side and get some lights. Exposure to bright sunlight for 30 minutes a
day either through sunlight or a light made for this helps keep your internal clock set. This
circadian rhythm helps to regulate our sleep.wake cycle and insures a good
night sleep which helps our physical and mental
health.

Form and structureBecause it is intended to be a bed table with the light box on the bottom, the form needs to be considered function-ality as well as aesthetics. Overall form kept simple yet elegant to emphaize the func-tionality and the patterns in the table.

Mind MappingMind Mapping helped me to think various things that are related to the light.

Narrow it downAfter I did the mind mapping, I narrow it down to certain things about the light and concentrated on those by branching out the ideas.

Tree branches panel
3 openings 4 openings
5 openings 6 openings
From the inspiration of tree branches shadow, I realized that there are various thicknesses which creates the depth on the ground. These panels represents its thicknesses and these layers will create interesting irregular patterns of the tree branches.
![Page 36: Light Therapy Bedtable](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051420/568bd5021a28ab203496e437/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
6 openings
With these four different wood panel, It created similar shape from the shadow of tree branches. It mimics the random-ness of branches as well as the thicknesses and depth of it.

Combination
Generating the form This is the picture of tree branches in black and white. I divided some sections based on similar thickness of it and color-ed the areas with different colors. This acitivity helped me to see the characteristics of the shape of tree brances.
