From his extensive work in eyewear design, Yair Neuman has seen first-hand the hidden waste in the sector. Neuman’s Lens Light collection is a direct response, showing firstly that the waste exists, and secondly how this valuable material can be turned into beautiful, useful pieces.
Neuman developed the waste lenses into a sheet material after extensive experimentation. The result is a material that is strong, aesthetically pleasing, and that clearly communicates the story of the plastic waste.
Optical grade Polycarbonate/PMMA with
anti-glare coating. Salvaged from the landfill or worse, the incinerator, and made into design pieces.
