UNESCO BRONZE MEDAL WINNER IN
FUTURE DESIGNER INTERNATIONAL
INNOVATION DESIGN AWARDS (2023)
I'm celebrating!!!! My project previously published Slow Furniture got awarded a bronze medal in the UNESCO Future Designer International Innovation Design Awards (IIDA). I attach some interviews I made for my university and for the journal InfoSOS.
SLOW FURNITURE THESIS PUBLISHED (2023)
Finally, after a lot of work, I'm proud to say that my thesis project 'Slow Furniture: Disseny d'un moble evolutiu, durador i emocional' has been published at the repository of the Universitat Politècnica de València. The work proposes a solution to the growing amount of furniture discarded after its single life cycle, especially those intended for use by children. The project investigates the creation of an evolving piece of furniture capable of changing its typology, accompanying children during their growth and even being kept until adulthood. Based on the principles of the Circular Economy, the proposal proposes a product that can be transformed, extending its useful life in different cycles and thus maintaining not only its physical value but also all the resources used during its manufacture. Furthermore, it is designed to create an emotional link between the person and the object that motivates the individual to give second and third lives to the pieces of furniture, thus delaying as much as possible or even avoiding their arrival in the landfill.
