Graypants is a design studio driven by curiosity, material exploration, and a hands-on approach to making. With studios in Seattle and Amsterdam, the team works across product design, lighting, and architecture, creating pieces that balance creativity with practical purpose. Their work often sits between craft and innovation, resulting in objects that feel both thoughtful and distinctive.
At the heart of the brand is a strong belief that design is about people as much as it is about objects. Each piece reflects the process behind it and the individuals involved in its making. Graypants continues to collaborate with global partners while also producing custom lighting and large-scale installations, extending its design language into a wide range of environments.
The Scraplights collection is a defining example of this approach. Each light is handcrafted from recycled cardboard, primarily sourced from post-consumer waste. Using precision laser cutting and non-toxic adhesives, the material is carefully shaped into layered forms that diffuse light in a warm and atmospheric way. Finished with a non-toxic fire retardant, Scraplights combine durability with a clear commitment to sustainability, craftsmanship, and considered design.
