Market for All
Product Design | Upcycling Industrial Waste
Exhibit at Milan Design Week 2017, T-12 Lab
The project began with T-12 lab's philosophy of transforming waste materials into "unique, unrepeatable models" of design, beyond that of a formal invention and capable of being fully integrated into the market of high-end objects. I participated in a design workshop held at the lab's wood and metal laboratory in Milan.
IDEA The products created will serve to engage dialogs with those who visit markets (sellers, buyers), record experiences & opinions on the life of the neighborhood.
PRODUCT 1 & 2 / SAMPLE FOOD PLATTERS
The two products I created were inspired by the concept of sampling and sharing food at food markets/community tables. They could be passed around or brought in from the kitchen. Scraps of wood and metal were used for features both functional and aesthetical.
