The Trapetsi lamps showcase amadou composite in lighting design. This innovative material is 100% biodegradable, non-toxic, and prepared entirely by hand. The composite utilizes leftover pieces of amadou that would otherwise go to waste due to their small size. The binding agent in the composite is a wood-based cellulose derivative, a completely compostable natural glue.

The Trapetsi lamps are designed to showcase fungal material research in a way that makes it relatable, functional, and fun.
