UPCYCLING CAFÉ FROM FRIDAY 6 TO SUNDAY 8 NOV
An upcycled chair designed from CLT offcuts, the thick wood panels usually used in timber building construction. For this first collaboration with a designer from outside Duplex, the Belgian brand worked with Vincent Baranger, co-founder of Studio 5•5.
CLT 5•5
David Abittan of Tema.archi will record the first episode of RE! live at the Upcycling Café, with guests Vincent Baranger and Anthony Lebossé of Studio 5•5.
RE! is the podcast about all the “re”s of design: from rehabilitating buildings to recycling materials, by way of repair and reuse. Over a first season of six episodes, the series gives architects and designers a platform to share their experience and help us understand the new practices shaping the design professions.
Saturday 7 November at 4pm
Launch of the “RE!” podcast
David Abittan of Tema.archi will moderate two round tables with the following guests: Gaston Goldstein (Duplex), Victoire Decarne (QDB), Vincent Baranger (5•5), Charlotte Lovera (Atelier Aïno), Jean Bocabeille (BFV), Minh Ta (Atelier Craft).
