Coil Collection is a breakthrough new line of light fixtures made from up-cycled waste. After over two years of painstaking internal research & development, the collection of distinct matte fixtures were presented to the world. Unexpected from a fixture produced through additive manufacturing, the Coil Collection​ ​looks and feels like pottery, spun and handcrafted. 

The Coil Collection addresses a central question the industry is facing: What can we do with waste? Through an extensive engineering process to understand the possibilities of a base material, Coil Collection pushed the boundaries in collaboration with other polymer companies across the US to tap into a collective expertise and drive for innovation. Ultimately, a unique method was chosen of pelletizing waste materials to be repurposed through additive manufacturing. 

But, in design, recycling and sustainable innovation cannot be the sole motivator—the product has to be attractive, too. Sorting the colors of the waste through new technology, the company came up with a monochrome black and white palette for the pendants. Material science and design came together in the creation of the collection, aiming to create a material that looks unique, custom, and unlike previously seen upcycled materials. 

Coil Collection consists of 7 classic pendant shapes focused on distinct geometry and curvature with a matte finish, giving the fixtures a pottery-like quality. The elegant shapes deliberately define the endless options afforded by additive manufacturing to create a curated product with a distinct feel. Departing from what is expected from a 3D printed item, the form is textured, tactile, and unique. The textured finish, inherent to the additive manufacturing process, is complemented by subtle algorithmic adjustments to achieve a handmade, one-of-a-kind feel. This tactile, spun quality prompted the new collection’s name: Coil.
