Waste - stitched bowls

This is a continuous research project that arose from a mishmash of waste materials that caught the eye, and turned into an active gathering of items that were discarded but hold wonderful potential for transformation into functional creations. The waste materials were carefully sorted by substance, color, and texture to define a particular palette. They were then reassembled in order to create a new material with its own DNA – a sort of rich, abstract collage made out of layers of material pressed by colorful threads and delicately sewn together by an industrial sewing machine.

The first out-of-studio implementation of this design approach took place at Ramat Hanadiv's Visitors Pavilion InfoShop. A special collaboration with Ramat Hanadiv’s workers, all details of inserts, containers, and handles in the InfoShop are made out of Ramat Hanadiv waste. At this time, the studio is using this method to create a new series of forms and objects.
