This project started with the question: how can we use everyday food waste to create a functional product for the home? The outcome is a table lamp made from a durable bamboo structure and interchangeable bioplastic shades created from food waste. As people become more intentional about the products they buy, they also want products that feel personal to them. The lamp allows users to make and replace their own bioplastic shades whenever they want, changing the appearance of the lamp over time. The bamboo frame is designed to last, while the bioplastic can biodegrade and be remade, encouraging repair, creativity and a more circular relationship with everyday objects.
