Müzz Design Studio

OFF-CUTS is a concept for any designer to be encouraged and inspired from material, process and design towards a zero waste system. We aim to show an honest way at looking at sustainability in terms of waste-free design and for OFF-CUTS to create a vision for the design process of waste conscious products. Focusing on sheet material and standardised sizes of readily available materials, we explored how to create objects where each cut and fold is carefully considered. Nothing was wasted during the making of the OFF-CUTS collection and the cut-offs were treated as valuable raw material. The collection includes lighting, tableware and home accessories that are “side effects” of each other.

OFF-CUTS aims to create a little window of how designers will think in the future as we have become a world wide culture who produces more trash than goods.
