Bhangar - news paper lamps

The lamp is made out of shredded news paper woven at the base through a wire frame. The irregular and random arrangements of the shredded paper produces interesting visual effects.


The lamp is made by a simple paper folding method common in origami. Here it is the folds in the paper and the news paper print itself that creates the dramatic light effect.

"Bhangar” started out as a part of a project that explores the usage and recycling of materials that are a part of our daily lives but often overlooked as a source of raw material for other products.
Off-course when it comes to fashion and trends one doesn’t want to look like some yoghurt-weaving hippie, but at the same time you want to look like a conscientious shopper with a sense of individuality and style.
That’s where these products come in. Purely made by dismantling and reassembling household crap, they not only provide an outlet for ethical shopping but also innovative and chic products.

They say im too thin,
Then why don't I fit in?
If I'm loosing the inches,
then why can't I measure up?

cube calendar

A 6 page calendar I designed on an acrylic cube filled with sand, with each surface of the cube representing 2 months in the year.
As you rotate the cube every 2 months so that that the correct month faces you, the illustration on the surface and the sand in the box all fall into place creating a complete image.
