Reusist : Developing reuse specialists

Lange, Eve Martina, Hosari, Nathalie January 2022 (has links)
The Reusist project has explored, evaluated, and designed a system through a co-creation process around the unsustainable disposal of valuable surplus furniture found at Återbruket (SSAM) and on-campus at Linnaeus University. The main aim of this project is implementing positive circular economy behaviours and attitudes through a designerly perspective, in light of consumerism and the constant need for and disposal of furniture. Design ethnography methods, workshops, and other techniques were used to drive co-creation; deriving values from stakeholders to shape the design outcome. Sustainability is explored holistically through environmental, social, economical, and cultural factors, with a main focus on the practice of re-framing value and circulating household furniture for as long as possible as a step towards a circular economy. The system proposed targets students as well as the general public, and so can be considered as a public service. Its main components consist of an umbrella concept of ‘Share’ founded upon ‘Furniture Packages’, enabled through ‘Repair’ and ‘Redesign’, and whose accessibility is amplified through a ‘Digital Presence’ which also enables ‘Crowdsourcing’. This project ended by presenting the proposal to the two direct collaborators, Återbruket (SSAM) and Svenska Kyrkan. However, this project isn’t finalised, as there are possible future steps to expand with an even more embedded collaboration alongside stakeholders and organisations.
