Plast er et af de materialer, der bekymrer os allermest. Det globale forbrug er højt, og da plast nedbrydes meget langsomt, hober det sig ofte op i store mængder på uhensigtsmæssige steder, til fare for naturen. Derfor var det oplagt for designeren at genbruge plastaffald i stedet for at bruge nye materialer. Med SMALLrevolution har han udviklet et modulært og fleksibelt opbevaringsmøbel, der kan udvides efter behov og pakkes ned, når man flytter. Hvis møblet skal bortskaffes, kan det returneres, og laves til nye møbler i genbrugsplast.
Plastic is one of the materials that worries us the most. Global consumption is high, and as plastic degrades very slowly, it often accumulates in large quantities in inappropriate places, endangering the natural environment. For the designer recycling plastic waste rather than using new materials was therefore an obvious choice. With SMALLrevolution, he has developed a modular and flexible storage chest that can be expanded as needed and stowed away when moving. Disposing of the furniture is simple. It can be returned and transformed into new recycled plastic furniture.
