Food Waste Renaissance (FWR) explores how food excess and byproducts can become sustainable design materials. Rather than solving large-scale waste issues, it shifts perceptions, encouraging individuals, designers, and communities to see waste as potential. Using byproducts from rice and dates, FWR creates biodegradable lamps that return material from the table to the table. In a world where systems often disguise harm as progress, FWR offers an alternative through reinvention and design.
