Designers are invited to imagine objects for workspaces, capable of fostering new interactions and changing the way people work, while prioritizing resource-efficient design. Opening on 29.10, 17h: Registration 8 designers – 8 objects From furniture, materials and recovered objects, each designer is invited to design a singular piece. The imagined objects must engage with contemporary uses of work: concentration, well-being, collaboration, conviviality, creativity and social interaction. Creation process The exhibition champions a design practice attentive to resources, where creativity is exercised as much in the final object as in the design and manufacturing processes. The creation process is an essential dimension. Designers draw from the flows of materials and objects passing through CSP bins, considering what exists as a resource and constraints as a project driver. Through reuse, transformation or repurposing, designers are invited to give new life to forgotten fragments and explore new design methods. The goal: create functional and meaningful objects that combine a low-tech and sustainable approach, an aesthetics of transformation and attention to their life cycle, repairability and potential for reuse.
