ReCraft Design Studio
ReCraft Design Studio is a Copenhagen-based practice working with reclaimed materials, including demolition waste and production offcuts, to create architectural elements and spatial interventions. Through hands-on experimentation and material research, the studio explores how existing resources can be reintroduced into contemporary design. Focusing on irregular and overlooked materials, ReCraft reveals the inherent qualities of what is already in circulation, extending its life while opening up new possibilities for use. Rather than concealing a materials history, the studio embraces it, allowing surfaces and traces of previous lives to inform new architectural applications.
As part of the Material Matters exhibition during 3daysofdesign, ReCraft Design Studio presents a material renaissance. A renaissance of familiar resources from Danish modernist architecture of the 1960s to 1990s, materials that are currently becoming obsolete through demolition, reintroduced in new forms. It explores how these elements, together with leftover fragments from stone production, can be transformed from waste into tactile surfaces and spatial compositions. The installation presents this transformation through tactile surface activation, where brick, concrete and stone are reworked from discarded materials into objects and new architectural elements, forming ornamental wall and floor claddings.
