UPS: Cellulose Sponge Tresle
2024

    In a rapidly changing world, industrial design is facing new challenges. For the 2024 Milano Design Week, ECAL presents UPS – Under Pressure Solutions, an experimental research project aimed at reducing the environmental impact of the furniture industry through the use of shape memory materials.

    We live in a digital era. Nowadays, every object in our daily life can be ordered online and delivered to our home

    Take furniture. In order to minimise the environmental and climatic impact of buying furniture, two elements are essential: optimising transportation or relocalising the production. These constraints bring new technical and aesthetic challenges to the field of industrial design.
    Here you can see a series of tests to develop a proposal for a trestle that can carry a large table top. 

    To achieve structure on the leg, two flat pieces where stiched together by the top and then hydrated with water. 

    For more info, please visit: https://underpressuresolutions.ch/

    Made in ECAL under the guidance of Camille Blin, Christoph Guberan and Anthony Guex.

    In collaboration with: Gabriella Duck Garnham

    Now based in Mexico City, his practice for brands and institutions explores the tension between the local landscape and the possibilities of mass production. Grounded in a hands-on, rough-making approach, his work spans contract industry solutions and material experimentation, reflecting on contemporary culture and proposing alternative ways of living through objects.
