Project Overview
The lamps are fabricated almost entirely using a Worbla - a biodegradable thermoplastic, derived from natural, renewable materials. Each lamp is unique, made-up of individual moulds taken from sections of trees. The design process starts with a clear set of parameters - defined by the features of each tree. From this catalogue of features, a ‘cut & paste’ method is applied, where each lamp is constructed using a combination of tree segments.
Sustainability and efficiency are foundational to this project. Beyond the credentials of the thermoplastic itself, which contains roughly 30% waste sawdust, the fabrication process generates almost zero waste as all offcuts are reheated and repurposed into welding rods and internal structural lining. The plastic’s adhesive properties (activated by heat) eliminate the need
for additional glues or solvents, and the lamps are finished solely with a natural mineral paint.
Deeply personal in nature, this project reflects Fraser's lifelong connection to the garden and trees that surround his childhood home.
