12 01 2011 - Resource

Our goal is to make open source designs using materials and products that are gathered by Kringwinkel Turnhout.  We aim to make the design process and manufacturing of these new designs open by sharing the process through online social media and workshops we will be doing in our lab.

Central in the philosophy of our product designs is the relationship between user and product.  We try to optimize this relationship by stimulating awareness of what is waste and what is not, and by involving the user in the design process.

The resource platform is a collaboration of Kringwinkel Turnhout and the research group Art|Object & Design of the MAD-faculty. (Media, Arts & Design faculty – KHLim/PHL)
