This photo shows a chair made of discarded formwork from a construction site. The wood was transformed into a rounded structure using steam.
Glass generated from household waste was recycled and remade into a brand-new building material that can be used in large quantities.

The structure of the sofa is made from discarded formwork from a construction site, and the roller cushions are made of the blue plastic protective foam that is wrapped around aluminum door frames during construction. The original size of the foam was retained; after it was pressed, it created a unique texture.

Material features:
Assembled with discarded wood, formwork and various types of construction cite waste.
The shelves are made of wood from various types of discarded formwork that were re-cut and assembled. The feature is shown through the original color of the wood in different shades. The surface still retains the rust-etched nail holes from where the nails were removed.
The overall design echoes this floor’s focus on creativity by doing away with traditional bookcases that are closed and heavy, and opting for an open design in the hope of stimulating the emergence of more inspirational ideas.
The nail holes of the formwork are kept on the surface of the shelves as a memorial.
The numbers of the clock are represented by discarded building materials.
