Bachelor of Design with Honours
The ‘assemblage’ sofa is a design inspired by the circular material economy.
Through its affordance of flat pack disassembly, the product alleviates stress points of transport whilst guiding awareness towards the separation of constitute material components. This separation of components allows the user to participate in the refurbishment and ‘recovery' stage of the product's lifecycle. Its sculptural composition is informed by each fixture, as layers are nested upon one another in an assemblage of materials.
