The Strobilus

Named after the technical term for cone, the Strobilus Lamp is inspired by the natural look of an open pine cone. Designed by product designer Jonathon Coles for British architectural lighting company Paviom, the premise for the Strobilus was for it to be recyclable with high efficiency and low energy.

Using paper pulp, a material typically used in packaging, the Strobilus was constructed using the same process as commercial lighting, without taking away from the sustainability of the overall lamp. The paper pulp enables the Strobilus to be 95% recyclable.
