The philosophy of Paper Paste Living is to create beautiful and functional home items in circular materials. The core material is a mixture of compressed recycled paper and water without any binders. The paper paste part of the objects are handcrafted in Spain, while all the wood and cardboard are sourced in the Czech Republic. With the Shape of Nature in mind, the products are carefully designed in Denmark by Hans Thyge & Co. The paper used arrived from a KM0 recovery plant near the over 100-year-old production facility just outside of Barcelona. Other materials besides paper are also used, like FSC-certified. For the pouf seat, Italian regenerated cotton in Ivory was used, and it gets its softness from the coconut fibres inside.

During 3daysofdesign, Paper Paste Living will showcase a brand new concept of customising with paint and patterns on the products. They will also present new products, including a paper bin made of paper as well as a different kind of cellulose material. See anything from colourful lampshades, furniture and eye-catching decor.

wa/ter was founded in response to the excessive waste in interior design, where projects are rapidly planned, demolished over time, and never passed down. This led to the fundamental question: “Have we, as designers, failed to create designs with lasting value?” Through design, wa/ter uncovers new meaning and circulation in materials once shaped by human hands but left without purpose.

MANU builds object-to-human relationships. Their objects are all ‘characters’ to live alongside — not bought and sold, but adopted. Working across waste streams, the material becomes both the starting point and the guide, allowing its limitations to shape the design of each object. They craft objects from PET bottles, lemon peels, or sand — depending on what’s available around them. MANU believes this philosophy can help us rediscover the value of finite raw materials, encouraging more respect and care for the objects we live with.
