Installation / 2017
Workshop organised by the Syctom during Paris Design Week 2017 made with Philippe Zappadu & Eliott Tsaramaro elected “Coup de Coeur” by the jury set up in studio Thema Design
How to reduce office waste, by using only those waste as raw material?
“Facing the wall” is an event created to raise awareness on office waste, directed to the one creating it. During the event, paper waste is transformed into a collective artwork, facing people with their paper consumption. The event is also a time for all company members to meet around the topic of sustainability. The wall will be unique to each company, since made with their own papers and with their own sense of layout.
But “Facing the wall” isn’t just an event. After creation the artwork stays, reminding everyone to be mindful of their waste. The artwork is meant to be put in the hall, visible by all, even signaling to visitors the clear commitment of the company for sustainability.
