Designers are invited to imagine objects for work spaces, capable of sparking new interactions and evolving the ways we work, while prioritizing resource-efficient design. Opening reception on 29.10, 17h: Registration required 8 designers – 8 objects Using recovered furniture, materials and objects, each designer is invited to create a unique piece. The imagined objects must engage with contemporary work practices: focus, well-being, collaboration, conviviality, creativity and social interactions. Creative process The exhibition champions a design practice attentive to resources, where creativity is exercised both in the final object and in the processes of design and fabrication. The creative process is an essential dimension. The designers draw from the flows of materials and objects passing through the CSP waste bins, considering what exists as a resource and constraints as a driver for the project. Through reuse, transformation or subversion, designers are invited to breathe new life into forgotten fragments and explore new design methods. The objective: to create functional and meaningful objects that combine a low-tech and sustainable approach, an aesthetic of transformation and attention to their lifecycle, repairability and reuse potential.
