Recycled Pouffe
All garbage in the street could become an art of design in our ecologic environment.
1/6

Solution

My idea is to create an ecological module for everyday usage. As a unit I decided to make a mobile pouffe around the table in the pastime. The base of this pouffe is a garbage that surrounds us in the environment. Curtain Number of garbage was collected in a small volume and then covered with a layer (foam) to create the shell. And then painted fluorescent green color to capture the spirit of nature and to have small amounts of light emitted. Also inside were installed two lamps to use the pouffe at night.

The basic idea is to create a mobile ecologic's unit as a piece of furniture(pouffe). With the contemporary technologies of our future to create a shell for the base of unit from the garbage can be easier way as well. By this prototype I just represented a simple idea how to use a garbage around us in our nature. And all the the time to create different shapes and sizes. To go to the camping ground you will not only leave a clean environment, and can feel like a designer and create your own sustainable unit to leave it for new age.

Which problem is solved by this idea?

The problem with a garbage which we all have after outdoor dinner. To recycle it locally and keep our environment more greener, beauty and sexy.

How does your idea solve the problem?

The idea is to create a unique unit from amount of the garbage after outdoor dinner. To cover this garbage and to get a unit of furniture as pouffe. Create you own design and use it in backyard.

What's the benefit for the target group?

This idea can have a lot of directions. One of them to use it on the streets as an art direction. And to become as a small architectural form in urban context.

What could be the perfect event to implement your approach/object?

To have a possibilities to develop a technology for a shell of this object and use it in private and public zones. And organize an art in some squares. To represent to people ecological starvation.

How many guests can participate in your outdoor dinner?

One person can make his own unit for one person. It depends how much garbage they produce in one outdoor dinner meeting. Let say 5 people can produce garbage for one Pouffe.

Thank you! no, it is a chair for dinner, but the idea is flexible and I think it can be a table as well, but with another form.

To make something out of garbage is a great idea (maybe one could even think of something made out of the waste locally generated at picknick places?)

But so far your something to me is not deifined enough in form and function (besides that one can sit on anything if necessary ;-)

Think deeper - make a good thought to a great concept!

Thank you for the input. The idea is to represent how to make beauty shape from waste locally generated. Anyway, thank you for suggestion, I will try to develop this concept and make it more clear.

to me the green color doesn´t look like it "capture(s) the spirit of nature", if i were you i would look for a more natural color

Nice approach here. Looking forward to the updates, too :) I dunno why but there is something about this green not in form thing that I really like. Might be because it's really unconventional. Just don't forget to focus on the dining part :)
