About the project
Studio POLY is based on a long process of experiments, all concerning innovative ways to reuse the plastic waste of everyday life. Instead of producing new plastic material, why not use the plastic that is already in the world? Plastic is both strong, tough and endlessly recyclable. We have turned cleaned and shredded plastic from the danish households into a sheet material. This material has lead us to the design of two different chairs.
The chairs are the prototypes, which embodies the use of this recycled plastic material. The production of the chairs takes responsibility for the otherwise wasted materials as part of a circular economy. Studio POLY is created to start a discussion about responsible furniture production and raise awareness of the amount of reusable material that already exist on earth.
