# Sugarcane Suspended Office Lights Snøhetta and Ateljé Lyktan Create the Superdupertube By Amy Duong | Published 2024-08-01 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superdupertube References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/07/21/a-sugarcane-and-hemp-suspended-light-to-illuminate-office-spaces-sustainably/) & [snohetta](https://www.snohetta.com/)  Snøhetta and Ateljé Lyktan work in collaboration to continue forming [sustainable design solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/terra-lamp-series) and the latest efforts arrive in the form of the Superdupertube. It is an [office lamp](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/juba-tl1-table-lamp) that uses materials that reflect the design studio's work of regenerative design. This collaboration started years ago as a team of architects and designers joined Atelje Lyktan to find materials with lower eco impacts. Hemp was one of the selections due to its strong fibers. The Superdupertube is a modern imagination of the Supertube by Atelje Lyktan -- this was an office light from the 70s that was made from aluminum materials. The simple design of this caught the attention of the design studio and the two used a composite of Dutch hemp and [sugarcane-based PLA plastic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-solids-1) to recreate the lamp.
