‘DISMANTLED’ by Are You Mad is a month long concept store in Coal Drops Yard that reimagines what recycling looks, feels and sounds like. With an emphasis on transparency, the pop-up aims to break down barriers around waste, making it visible, creative and unavoidable, offering a refreshing alternative to “beige” sustainability.
“When we were approached about supporting the event we immediately saw the synergy and an opportunity to support a concept which embraces change and movement towards circular design and repurposing materials.” Andy Noble, CDUK Managing Director.
Look out for PaperStone® and Polygood®, chosen for bespoke modular furniture including the workshop stools and tables. We have also contributed with material off-cuts through the Vita Nova, the CDUK repurposing solution for surface materials. The entire space has been built to be dismantled; a concept rarely approached in pop-up retail design. All materials used will be upcycled, recycled or discarded materials. CDUK will take back the surface materials which will be repurposed through Vita Nova.
