Remli

Remli is a portable lighting fixture that seeks to reconstruct the overly
complicated and inappropriate relationship between humans and materials, reimagining waste materials from Tokyo as new vernacular materials. In industrial waste recycling plants in the suburbs of Tokyo, fine debris and rubble, which remain after the sorting and recovery of reusable materials, are collected before being sent to landfills. These collected fragments are further crushed, mixed with soil, and applied to the surface of the lighting fixture using plastering techniques. Through this process, Remli explores the new value of waste materials that are difficult to recycle and often send to landfills. This product is commercialized through a
collaborative development between the research project “Urban Origin” by we+ and Ambientec.
