The Tin Can Light is a task light that highlights the idea of upcycling post-production & household waste materials for the development of new products.
The main body of the light comes from a baked bean tin & the legs are bicycle spokes, finished in powder-coated satin black; powder-coat reflecting the upcycling process as very little paint is wasted during the process.
The light is completed with a vintage red flex for the power source and red twine for securing the legs, offering stability and aesthetic symmetry.
