Recycled Lamp – Prototype
The Recycled Lamp was developed as an extension of Villette Makers’ existing children’s workshop, where participants learn to connect LED strips to a battery and repurpose plastic dishes into lamp bodies.
Building on this concept, we explored the idea of a versatile lamp that could function as both wall art and ambient table lighting, easily moved between the two uses. We completed several components, but not all, so the result remains a prototype demonstrating the concept and its potential for further development.
