CONTEMPORARY WASTE is an effort to shift Western cultures material values in order to embrace a more sustainable ‘high-end’ design aesthetic. Investigating a contemporary design aesthetic by combining off cuts, scraps, and end of life materials, with an emphasis on construction and industrial process by-products. Challenging the value we associate with waste materials and function driven design by changing the context in which it’s seen and used.
