Commentary & Critique - One Man's Trash is Another Man's Treasure
This is the second of a three part series on Design for Recycling, this one focusing on Pre Consumer waste written for the Textile Toolbox, TED's web platform for MISTRA in Sweden.
Steinwidder is an Austrian label founded in 2002 by Anita Steinwidder, and working with pre and post consumer waste to produce an authentic, unique and creative women’s wear collection. Approaching design through a combination of architectural and design sensibilities, Steinwidder cuts up existing clothing, and reconfigures the elements into entirely new compositions, placing them into a new conceptual context.
