ClientCyprus University of Technology

In this product series, the process of creating corporate gifts for the guests of the Cyprus University of Technology, was treated as an opportunity to explore sustainable modes of creation. A series of prototypes were made, each one presenting a case study for practitioners of slow making and circular economy. Items made with reclaimed wood from modernist demolition sites, construction beam off-cuts from the industry and other materials find their way onto corporate desks. Each product, inspired by the university logo, triggers a new set of social commentary regarding perceptions of making.
