Sofa

1st prize Sofa design, the Netherlands

Sofa design in recycled plastic awarded for realization. The sofa will be used by Stoere Vrouwen (Tough Women) an organization that stimulates awareness amongst shoppers. With the sofa realized by recycling used plastic shopping bags we support the ban of single use plastic bags for shopping.

The motivation of the jury for the 1st  prize winner:

This design is an eye catcher in form and color, it draws the attention in public spaces. The design will stand out on festivals and will still be present in big spaces. It’s inviting for a long sit and relaxing moment. Stoere vrouwen (Tough Women) will stand out on this sofa with their dark green outfit. The rough shape fits perfectly the army look of the Stoere Vrouwen (Tough Women). Also people that pass by will be informed on eye level by the tablet screens. This design is a strong and well thought through proposal to the clients wishes.
