Studio Shoo will present "From the Fridge," a transformative installation at Dubai Design Week 2024. Constructed from Polygood, 100% recycled and recyclable plastic panels by The Good Plastic Company, the installation, provided by Danube Building Materials, turns discarded refrigerator plastic into a visually captivating lounge area. Bold colours and textures highlight the potential of recycled materials. The seating features Sport, a fabric by Kvadrat, the world's first recycled polyester upholstery textile made from 100% ocean-bound plastic waste, adding another layer of sustainable design.
"From the Fridge" reflects on consumer waste, sustainability, and environmental responsibility. By repurposing plastic from refrigerators, the installation transforms waste into a functional, beautiful space, demonstrating how recycling can combat environmental degradation. The vibrant Polygood panels bring new life to waste materials, while the Kvadrat fabric adds comfort and style.
Shushana Khachatrian, founder of Studio Shoo, emphasises the installation's message: 'With From the Fridge, we wanted to show how something as mundane as a discarded refrigerator can become a piece of art with a strong environmental message.'
William Chizhovsky, CEO of The Good Plastic Company, adds: 'Our collaboration on From the Fridge highlights the transformative potential of recycled plastic.'
This installation invites visitors to engage in a dialogue about reducing waste and promoting a sustainable future. "From the Fridge" will be on display at d3 Dubai Design District from November 5 to 10.
