AySA

Furniture designed from discarded materials commissioned by the Projects Department of DAL - Department of Logistics Support, to equip the new facilities of the Water Little Houses. The search aimed to work with the industrial discards generated by the company in order to highlight the possible transformation of waste into a functional product through design as a key factor in generating value. In the first stage, the different types of waste found in the plants were surveyed, what materials they were, what use was given to them, what quantities were generated monthly, whether there were recycling programs for those pieces, etc. Finally, a series of PVC tubes for water conduction that were expired and uniformly unused were selected. With this material, equipment was designed for the "Water Little Houses" whose main objective was to host different schools that went on excursions to learn about the water purification process in Aysa's plants. Based on the needs of the space, a series of cloud seating modules were created that could be used separately to seat 4 children or combined into a large cloud for the entire classroom to sit. Project developed in conjunction with designer Luciana González Franco.
