A piece of string, a bottle-cap, an undamaged board from a bashed-in crate – none of these things should be neglected. Everything falls apart, but not every part of every thing, at least not at the same time.
– Paul Auster, In the Country of Last Things, 1987
My work focuses on repurposing discarded materials that are no longer in use. By creatively repurposing these “junk” materials, I transformed them into viable components for architectural structures. This approach not only emphasises the potential of sustainable design but also questions traditional uses of waste, and utilises these components to make structures that are also appealing to the public through their playful transformation. Through my projects, my aim is to demonstrate that what is frequently disregarded may be reinterpreted as something useful and beautiful, advocating a more resourceful approach to design.
