Claesson Koivisto Rune – Paper Task Light

18.05.10

‘Paper Task Light’ is lamp design in durapulp and made in collaboration between swedish architectural practice claesson koivisto rune, swedish lighting company wästberg, and forestry group södra.

This year at milan design week 2010, mårten claesson, eero koivisto and ola rune of claesson koivisto rune office have once again developed a functional item out of the material ‘durapulp’, a biodegradable plastic based on maize starch. Aside from being durable and waterproof, this material is also fully compostable. While historically paper has been used primarily in lamp shades, ‘paper task light’ integrates the use of paper as the actual structure of the lamp with added LED technology.
