Living Lab is urban laboratory space for exploring new typologies of Circular Economy lifestyle. Majority of interior components are rented, refurbished, and/or reused. By placing the lab at 華山站貨場 in the heart of Taipei city, the general public can learn more ideas about the Circular Economy concept and adapt to their daily life to promote a more sustainable society.
There are several focal points in Living Lab, which is the ceiling lighting fixture made with the recycled computer screen film arranged with circle packing method, 2+2 wooden pallet transformable furniture, and reused wood pallet shelf for green plants. Each component represents how to utilize existing materials for extending its product life and upcycle the product for creating higher value. By reducing the usage of trimming and gluing, these components can recover to the original state for disassembling to return.
