Remli

The portable lighting "Remli," a product developed through collaboration with the research project “Urban Origin” by we＋, contemporary design studio based in Tokyo, and Ambientec.

Considering Tokyo as the origin of used materials, "Remli" explores the potential value of waste, returning to the origin of the relationship between humans and materials - “using vernacular materials and treating them simply with our own hands".

In industrial waste recycling plants in the suburbs of Tokyo, various waste materials are sorted and recycled. However, debris such as shattered glass and pottery, and concrete fragments, challenging to sort by material type, are sent to landfills.

Picking up this waste from the plants, grinding them more finely in a mill, and mixing them with soil to be applied to the surface of the lighting, gives birth to Remli.

The surface, composed of various materials, shows a beautiful gradient and rich texture when illuminated.

Materials destined for burial find a new destiny as contemporary vernacular materials, seamlessly blending back into daily life.
