N+EW Light is the continuation of my investigation in the use of e-waste materials for interior and exterior design. In Chile and several countries of Latin America, policies on recycling and reuse of non biodegradable materials aren't a habit nor law. Therefor, it is absolutely necessary to search for other use and possible solutions to return this material gladly to our homes, gardens or exteriors, creating a durable piece which allows the use of different dense plastics, no matter its weight, color, form, final price nor brand. This creation is a beautiful object due to its extreme honesty and perfect randomness. Almost an example where error transforms itself in the final search and perfection. N+EW light is is produced by rotomolding, where low density plastic is mixed with the plastic of the crushed electronic waste shaping an irreverent diffuser molded in an also recycled iron matrix. Its base is produced with smelted aluminum of beer and drink tins amongst others. Together they form this 32 x 32 x 32 cm piece.
