Pulp Friction

Pulp Friction addresses gaps in how sustainable resources are understood and applied in design. It explores recycled cellulose pulp as a structural organic material, using hands-on, process-led experimentation. Paper and workshop waste are transformed through playful yet industrial methods, challenging everyday consumption, questioning the permanent materials we use for objects not meant to outlive us, and reframing waste as a valuable resource.
