WasteLess – Modular coffee table made by waste material

Waste management has been considered as a significant challenge for sustainable development. From EPA report, furniture is the number one least-recycled item in a household. In current markets, much of furniture is made of composite material, which isn’t feasible to separate.

This design project is based on the trend of sustainable furniture as well as the rapid expansion of recycling culture. It contains both tangible furniture design and intangible circular system. The context of the project is a modular table design that combines both recycle material and mass-producible ready-to-assemble furniture (RTA). The product is supported by a circular sharing service to keep itself updated.
