Open research
DUBLO studio developed a creative method, enabling a nature-inspired and spontaneous design practice, that allows us to work outdoors, where we have free access to materials, natural light and an open workspace.
Behind the method of regenerative design stands a design journey which starts in a natural environment to provoke a different process that’s driven by curiosity and leads to the use of plant-based materials. Working this way, new materials and unusual objects appear.
MESA
The loungetable MESA is a circular furniture made from eucalyptus bark.
MESA is a side table that is handmade of 100% natural components and therefor is biodegradable. The process of material preparation is based on criteria of regenerative design. Eucalyptus bark is used, which falls naturally from the tree and can be collected from the ground. This conceptual work is intended to show a field of application for plant materials in less complex products. Properties of the material are lightness and stability and a long life cycle, as it is reusable.
