Journal Title: Kultura Popularna - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 52
Abstract
This paper is written to present the usage of waste materials in modern design. At the beginning the author analyzes the sources of fascination with waste and trash in art. Then the phenomenon from the borderline of ecology, design and high art - upcycling (re-design) is described. Upcycling was introduced as a one of the methods to maintain the environment without doing any harm and to recreate useful products out of waste materials. By changing functions, uses, and meanings of old things designers give the product a new higher value. The author lists the values and advantages of this method and examples of using it in indoor and outdoor spaces and also in fashion. In the summary the social aspects of upcycling are presented.<br/><br/>
