LuminaLee Bio Desk Luminaire

Introducing a new era of lighting: under the radiance of bio-material desk lamp, sustainability and innovation collide. I have responded to the need for environmentally friendly solutions in the world by providing a workspace light that not only illuminates your desk but also illuminates the path to a more environmentally friendly future.

Materials:
- 2 cups of flour
- 3 cups of plywood sawdust
- 1 glass of water
- Sandpaper
- Felt
Implements:
- Bowl
- Spoon
Prepare the Mould


- Use a corrugated cardboard to make the mold.
- Cut the cardboard with a length of 181mm and a height of 220mm.
- Ensure the box is clean and dry before use.
- Round the cardboard and stick it together using any glue, etc. glue gun.
- Once the cardboard is rounded it will form 110mm in diameter.
Prepare the Bio-Degradable Mixture



- Combine 3 cups of sawdust with 2 cups of flour in a mixing bowl.
- Stirring constantly, gradually add water until the mixture takes on the consistency of a thick paste. Make sure the mixture is lump-free.
Attach Mixture to the Mould

- Attach the mixture to the mold, while ensuring smoothness throughout.
- The box is not strong enough to hold the material. I took a blue glass to give it more strength and placed it on the inside of the mold box.
- The mold is now balanced, and the bio-degradable material will not fall off the mold when drying.

Allow to Dry & Remove the Mold


- After finishing adhering the mixture, give the structure time to completely dry. Depending on the environmental factors and the thickness of the layers, this could take a few hours or even overnight.
- Once the material is dry, remove the box mold from the inside.
Finishing Touches


- The light was strong enough after 4-5 days, so I drilled holes and created designs on the sides.
- Sand any uneven edges using sandpaper.
- Attached felt material for the aesthetics of the luminaire.
