Scrap Lights

. From Graypants, these gorgeous lamps are made entirely from strips of repurposed cardboard boxes. Each is handmade and requires a 4-6 week lead time when ordering. Prices run from $219 to $479. They are made in accordance with UL regulations for indoor use and include a 40 watt clear lightbulb.


From their website:

seth and jonathan first crossed paths at kent state university in cleveland, honing abilities to endure long winters and earning degrees in architecture + design. now, eight years of collaboration and spirited adventure has landed them in seattle, where graypants, inc. was forged from a desire to make a difference through design. it’s also here that their great friend jon joined the team, bringing a fresh energetic spark and experience from north carolina and seattle.

we strive to come up with designs and ideas that are thoughtful and have an impact, whether it be furniture, lighting, architecture or graphics. each one of our projects has a unique story and we try to explore new ideas to redefine how design can have a greater impact. most importantly, we have fun doing it! we enjoy collaborating with all walks of life – that is where we find true inspiration. we want to let the beauty of what we love be what we do.

Forty watts? Who can read by 40 watts!!?? Wink. What I really wanted to comment on is, I like the green background much better than the previous color. What was that, rust? Not sure, but I didn't much care for it. This is much nicer.

one of the pizza chains 1970's, 80's had pendants over the booth tables. shades were simple wide cones made of layered corrugation. they were left "natural kraft" color.
outdoors the signage had some green, so i'll guess the chain was http://images.google.com/images?q=roundtable+pizza
