Concrete Lamp Concept

Craft meets industrialization, finding a way to have light pass through concrete - concrete infused with fibre optics?

This project started on the factory floor - understanding the process, meeting the craftsmen, understanding the constraints of materials & process before sketching & conceptualizing. 

 

The material: A lightweight concrete-paper hybrid that's completely biodegradable

 

The Process: The mixture is poured into fibre glass moulds, mixed to remove any air pockets, flattened & left to set before being de-moulded.
