The pendant lamp design by Graypants has an interesting ecological idea. Like the other lights in the Scraplights series, the Moon is made of recycled cardboard, but its forms are inspired by the creators’ lives and by their fascination with plants and the moon visible in the night sky. The natural structure of cardboard creates unique effects in the room when the lamp is switched on. Graypants introduced Scraplights in 2008, and the collection is constantly expanding.
Pendant lamp design and manufacturing process
Graypants was founded in Seattle by Jonathan Junker and Seth Grizzle. The studio makes chairs, tables, lamps, and even dog houses from recycled and reclaimed materials, but Scraplights became one of its larger design successes. The rings are made from laser-cut recycled cardboard and then glued together with non-toxic adhesive.
Lighting design – "Quad" lamp
If you already want these stunning pendant lamps made from recycled cardboard, you can order one from the online store. Made from stacked rings of laser-cut cardboard, they are a good example of the combination of recycled materials and strong design. Graypants also recently introduced the Quad design, a new pendant lamp made from a single piece of recycled cardboard. You can find the Quad lamp alongside many other cool lights in the online store.
