forever lamp

A customizable lamp, designed for attachment and sustainable behaviour. This project was done as a part of the course Sustainable development. The task was to choose a cheap lamp that existed on the market, disassemble it, analyze its parts, and its environmental impact. It turned out that the materials did not age very well and it was not designed for sustainability at all. Its parts were not replacable. A flaw in one single component would end the lifetime for the whole lamp, forcing the user to buy a new one. It was a no-brand lamp, which made it impossible to find out who actually manufactured the lamp. Its lifecycle was completely linear going from manufacturing to waste.
