Aggregate Collection Lamp is an innovative lighting design series comprising three distinct floor lamps that masterfully combines recycled materials, including plastic, concrete, and steel, to create sculptural illumination pieces. The collection, which earned a Silver A' Design Award in the Lighting Products and Fixtures Design category, represents a significant advancement in sustainable lighting design through its innovative approach to material reuse and artistic expression. Each piece in the collection features a welded skeleton crafted from reclaimed steel scraps, overlaid with a specially developed composite material combining concrete and recycled plastic, creating unique silhouettes that draw inspiration from human gestural forms. The lamps, measuring up to 1854mm in height, incorporate strategically positioned LED tube bulbs that provide efficient and evenly diffused illumination suitable for large spaces. The design process involved extensive material research and experimentation, particularly in developing an optimal concrete mixture incorporating shredded plastic bottles as polymer fibers, combined with ECC concrete and well-graded silica sands on an alkali-resistant fiber base. This innovative approach to materials not only addresses environmental concerns regarding urban waste but also creates a distinctive aesthetic that balances organic forms with commanding presence. The collection includes three unique pieces: The Walk (305mm x 1220mm x 1854mm), Holding On (457mm x 762mm x 1854mm), and Broken (457mm x 457mm x 1854mm), each featuring user-friendly step light switches at their bases and demonstrating the successful fusion of artistic expression with functional lighting design.
