Vegware espresso cup lighting by Blee Halligan
Innovation Eco espresso cup lighting
Operator Duke Street Espresso Bar, Liverpool
Architects Greg Blee and Lee Halligan
The brief The light installation had to be cheap and eye-catching as a draw for new customers.
The solution The white Vegware espresso cups were used in the café, so it was decided to incorporate them in a utilitarian, disposable object as decoration. An LED lighting grid normally used for Christmas trees was put inside each cup, and inserted an O-ring grommet from a plumbing supplies shop to hold the bulb in place.
