Recycling Shades

PLASTIC BAG SHADE

Made with wire, light canvas and a plastic bag from supermarket this shade is a experimental prototype i have created in 2016.

 

Plastic Bag Shade

Made with wire, light canvas and a plastic bag from the Sainsbury’s. A experimental prototype and light for my bedroom.

London — 2016.

 
 
 

My first shade crafted

Crafted around 2008 using wire, cotton fabric and plastic resin. To finish up, flowers coming from the light using stencils of mines. A bright exercise and a peculiar light shade.

Farroupilha — Brazil — 2008.

 
 

 

The following one was one of my ‘emergencial shades’.

You probably once in your life had arrived in a place with an annoying bright light, right? ) This situation with the add on of having to live there for a couple of months provoked this piece made with simple 3 sides of carton-paper and a bit of tape.

FYI, if you one day try doing shades yourself, just keep in mind not let touching paper or plastic on warm parts of the light structure.  

Rio Grande — Brazil — 2012.

 
 

 

Another livingroom in need of a shade challenged me once again.

This time I added my Brazilian touch.
