FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Pebble: Transforming Urban Spaces with Sustainable Andesite Waste Recycling

Gizem Deniz Guneri's Pebble design is a groundbreaking approach to street lighting, seamlessly blending nature-inspired forms with urban functionality. The design, which doubles as seating-leaning furniture, is crafted from recycled andesite waste, addressing the environmental impact of construction industry by repurposing tons of waste material that is rarely reused. The Pebble's irregular pebble-like geometry and use of tactile material qualities create a unique and sustainable lighting solution that integrates seamlessly into urban environments.

The Pebble's innovative use of andesite waste in a cement-based composite not only provides a visually striking lighting solution but also addresses the significant problem of waste storage in the construction industry. By emitting light from a slit, the Pebble offers low-altitude illumination, effectively reducing urban light pollution and contributing to a more sustainable and visually appealing urban landscape.

With a focus on sustainability and functionality, the Pebble design embodies the principles of biophilic design, offering a harmonious blend of organic form and urban utility. Its versatility allows for both vertical and horizontal use, providing durable leaning furniture when used vertically and comfortable seating furniture emitting light from below when used horizontally. This multifunctional approach to urban lighting and furniture design sets the Pebble apart as an innovative and environmentally conscious solution for urban spaces.
