Milan-based start-up Krill Design has 3D printed a touch-activated lamp from Sicilian orange peel. As well as smelling great, the Ohmie lamp has the added bonus of being compostable with organic household waste. The designers hope to prove that food waste can be successfully reused to craft an eco-design product that is both attractive and functional.
After fashion embraced banana- and mushroom-based leather, home decor is now jumping on the fruit and vegetable trend. The Italian firm Krill Design has turned to Sicily's emblematic oranges to create a light and fragrant lamp. From its patterned surface to its vibrant scent and colour, the 23cm-tall lamp is designed to reflect its origins.
