Domus Polpa, created with Studio Evaporer, is a collection of bioplastic lamps made from pulps, bark, and plant remains. The living, perishable material is naturally dyed with fruits and vegetables, beetroot, orange, grapefruit, banana making every piece unique in color, texture, and behavior.

A design that does not seek to impose itself, but to dwell humbly, ephemerally.

Project created with Studio Evaporer
Domus Polpa is a collection of table lamps made from bioplastic, shaped from pulps, bark, and plant residues. Conceived as small luminous houses, they shelter both a light and a moment of life. Each lamp contains a pocket meant to hold a memory, becoming an intimate and ephemeral refuge.
The bioplastic, a living and perishable material, is naturally dyed by the fruits and vegetables from which it originates beetroot, orange, coffee, banana… Each piece reveals its own shade, texture, and behavior, bearing the trace of its organic origin. Entirely biodegradable and compostable, the material evolves over time, transforming gently, like every living thing.
Through Domus Polpa, we embrace a design that does not seek to impose, but to inhabit humbly and ephemerally. Here, architecture becomes sensitive no longer monumental, but alive and fragile.
Domus Polpa stands as both a material exploration and a poetic manifesto.
To create with this matter is to reject eternal residues and toxic traces, to choose the living, the fragile, the biodegradable to relearn how to love what fades, and to make design an act of humility
