About the Item

Donghoon Shon Floor lamp From "BSP" series Manufactured by Donghoon Shon Produced for Side Gallery Seoul (Korea), 2021 By product, solvent, plastic Contemporary design Measurements: 21 cm x 21 cm x 112 H cm 8.26 in x 8.26 in x 44 H in Concept The BSP series started from Donghoon Sohn research on how to recycle plastic by products. ABS is a popular material for 3D printing and CNC milling because it is easy to dye and process. Inevitably, a lot of plastic waste is created in the process, which is hard to recycle because it is too tiny, like dust. But these flakes or small parts from failed prints are easy to dissolve in a little amount of Organic solvent due to how large their surface area is relative to their volume. Defined by the exploration of new possibilities, Sohn´s design process is a combination of planned processes and imminent variables. The B.S.P series, is a collection derived from researching different ways to incorporate byproducts of the design process into the final work. The name of the series was inspired by the abbreviation of the B.L.T club sandwich. B.S.P stands for byproduct, Solvent, Plastic, the three materials used to create the collection. Although the series is largely made of virgin plastic blocks, instead of being held together by glue or resin, the blocks are stuck together by the use of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS plastic), a byproduct of the of the numerous design prototypes made during the 3D printing process. The byproduct takes the form of plastic flakes, which dissolve in a little amount of solvent due their large surface area, relative to their volume. These flakes dissolve quickly in ethanol, before they can be mixed with different coloured powders, forming a technicoloured glue which once again solidifies whilst pressing it between the slabs, causing it to ooze out between the plastic blocks like melted cheese.
