We make our lamps from two materials: PLA and PETG. Neither is a perfect choice. But both are considered ones, and in this post we explain what they actually are, where they come from, how they behave with light, and what happens to them at the end of their life.

Lighting is not just about brightness. It defines the mood and character of your home. From soft ambient light to focused task lighting, every layer plays a role in creating comfort and balance. This guide explores how to choose the right lamp for each room, understand color temperature, and find designs that feel as good as they look. Thoughtful lighting can turn any space into a story of warmth and atmosphere.

From the first sketch to the finished lamp, Plissé tells a story of curiosity, balance, and craftsmanship. Inspired by the softness of fabric and the calm of simple geometry, it combines a pleated surface with warm light to create gentle movement within a still form. Designed with precision and assembled by hand in Lausanne, Plissé embodies Lustra’s values of thoughtful design and care in every detail.
