Luis Luna's 'Gluttony' suspension lamp is a woven web comprised of plastic eating utensils that gives a plastic disco-ball effect when turned on.
'Gluttony' is both an example of attractive recycled lighting and a social statement on our relationship with food.
The 'Gluttony' lamp by Luis Luna was a finalist in the Designboom “House Party†competition and was exhibited at 100% Design Tokyo.
Implications - Consumers are drawn to purchase unique pieces, especially when they are made from older products that would normally be thrown out and become a hinderance to the environment. These consumers are moved to purchase this type of product in an effort to minimize their carbon footprint and maintain their eco-conscious lifestyle.
