Lamps Made of Drinking Cups

Recycling is now not new to everybody; you can see many people is looking for ways on how they can help save the earth in the form of recycling things. Just like this creative lamp designed by Peter Castellucci. The lamp is made of recycled plastic drinking cups. I find the result attractive and fashionable. However, the thing that baffles me is the heat the light produced may burn out the plastic cups. It sounds dangerous for me, but if the designer has also included in his design some sort of protection for the cups from burning out, then this one is awesome.

Kinderlite Disposable Campfire Frame and Starter Box

The Kinderlite is a disposable campfire created by Philip John Luscombe from the Northumbria University’s School of Design. Created for exhibition at the Museum of Modern Britain’s (MOMB) “2050 retrospective exhibition on the years 2008-2038”, the product is invented for those who know nothing about survival techniques for them to appreciate the qualities of a campfire. I myself did not know the purpose and qualities of having a campfire. This is maybe because I am not into mountain climbing and camping. However seeing this cute and maybe easy to operate campfire, I may now know the essence of having it, and will eventually learn to appreciate it.

Official Text :

The Campfire Frame and Starter Box were part of a product range developed by Kinderlite to satisfy a market desperate to experience the raw thrill of outdoor living. Living lives saturated by technology and longing for something more ‘real’, the young market of 2018 was eager to uptake outdoor pursuits, go on wilderness holidays and reconnect with primordial practices. Kinderlite products have ever since been helping people overcome a lack of confidence and knowledge to answer the ‘call of the wild’.
