In The Making... Every year, the people on our beautiful planet discard 2.12 BILLION TONNES of stuff. Why don't we value these items more? If we were to understand more about what went into each product - the time people spent designing, developing, crafting items, or even working in non-fancy factories on a production line. Or the time it took for the planet to grow, nurture or create those materials we use to create them, as well as the people who risk their lives to extract these materials, the people who care for the trees we fell and everyone involved between there and the factories? If we understood the hard work by both people and nature, would we think twice about discarding them so readily? We have had such fascinating conversations in the curation of this exhibition as part of Material Matters 2024, starting next Wednesday 18th September. We've asked our handpicked exhibitors, commercial manufacturing companies of varying scales, to peel back the polished facade of their brands and tell us their real stories. Because we believe, that if you know how large companies create jobs sustaining whole communities, prevent traditional craftmanship from being lost from a region, or invest in products which prevent ill health, then maybe people will want to look after that product, reuse it, and save it from waste. Please join us, read the stories from our exhibitors, including Florim Ceramiche, MARK Product | Certified B Corp, Modus | B Corp™, Arper and many more and hopefully learn something about commercial manufacture that might make you think or design a bit differently. 18th-21st September, Bargehouse (behind the Oxo Tower) tp bennett Christopher Webb Phil Towle Alex Webb

Bespoke furniture solutions to your design

FREITAG and Vitra products have things in common. One tenet of both is that products should live as long as possible. The FREITAG bags are designed to be easy to repair and can remain in circulation for a long time. The Vitra Circle Store is also part of this approach: selling used furniture, such as samples and exhibition pieces, and giving products a second life. Last Friday, a Repair Event for broken FREITAG bags took place at the Vitra Circle Store on the Campus in Weil am Rhein. Customers handed in their broken FREITAG bags for free, and the Repair Specialists showed them the individual steps of a repair. FREITAG is also a part of the Vitra Circle Store in other ways, as FREITAG Rarities have been available since the start of the year. Rarities are unique pieces with minimal production flaws. Like all of us, they may not be flawless, but they are perfect in their way and fully functional. Read more about the Vitra Circle Store here: https://lnkd.in/dNj-JAg3
