Together with a team of world–class designers, including Sabine Marcelis, Keiji Takeuchi, Cecilie Manz, Daniel Rybakken, and Stefan Diez, they have brought to life five groundbreaking designs, all made within a self–imposed limit of a 100km radius—from locally sourced demolished greenhouses and decommissioned light poles. The entirety of the R100 exhibition is constructed from 100% post–consumer aluminium, including its objects, podiums and displays.
