3D-Printed Sustainable Lamps
ALT Design Presents the Eco ALT Light with Corn Starch Plastic

ALT Design is a French design studio led and founded by Alexandre Touguet who has recently worked in collaboration with his partner Lise Rissel to create the ALT Light brand. This is an eco-conscious angle that explores new materials starting with the 3D-printed lamp crafted using PLA, which stands for polylactic acid.
The material is a plastic that is collected from renewable corn starch, showcasing the potential of blending progressive technology and sustainable materials. The aesthetic is not compromised as it has a colorful and uniquely transparent finish backed by sustainability. The choice of using PLA is important because it is biodegradable under industrial composting and this contributes to reducing carbon emissions as a whole.
