服を粉砕して板にしたり、ブロック状に成形される素材(循環型繊維リサイクルボードのパネコ・ヌノック)の展示会。
maticは展示の企画から、会場構成や家具デザイン、商品の新規カラーリングなどを一手に担った。
An exhibition of a material (PANECO & nunock, a recycled fiber-recycling board) that is made from crushed clothes and formed into boards and blocks. matic was in charge of planning the exhibition, designing the venue, designing furniture, and creating new colors for the products.
すでに多くの支持を得ていた厚さ3mm/5.5mmのパネル状のPANECOに加え、今回はブロック状であるNUNOCKを中心に、その使用方法の提案を行いながら会場を構成していった。家具や什器での使用の他、ステージなどの床使い、壁面で建具のように使用するなど異素材も組み合わせながら、時としてポイント使いとし、脇役的要素での提案も行なった。使用する服や生地の色がほぼそのまま出てくるので、多少の色ブレが生じることもあるが、それが逆にナチュラルな素材と言えるであろう。
In addition to the 3mm/5.5mm-thick PANECO panels, which had already gained a great deal of support, this year’s exhibition was composed around nunock, a block-shaped product, with proposals for its use. In addition to furniture and fixtures, the exhibition also proposed the use of NUNOCK as a supporting element, sometimes as a point of reference, while combining different materials, such as using it on the stage floor and on the walls as a fixture. The colors of the clothes and fabrics used are almost directly reflected in the materials, so there may be some color blurring, but this can be said to be the opposite of natural materials.
成型時に剪定した葉や廃棄される花をプレスしたものなど、植物をあしらったパネルもある。剪定した枝は攪拌時に練りこんでもらいテラゾのような表情が出るようにし、汎用性を考慮したものを依頼。布だけではない新たな表情が垣間見える。
Some panels are decorated with plants, such as leaves pruned during molding and pressed discarded flowers. The pruned branches were kneaded into the material during mixing to give it a terrazzo-like appearance, and the panel was commissioned for its versatility. This gives a glimpse of a new look that is not limited to fabric.
ヌノック(←布のブロックでヌノック)は、様々な色が混ざり込んだブロックが3パターンすでに生産されていたが、新たに単色のものを制作依頼。粉砕の荒さを細かくすることで生地感は消え、本物のレンガや焼き物のような表情になる。それらを異素材と組み合わせることでまた新たな表情を引き出すチャレンジを行なった。
nunock (←nunock with NUNO(fabric) blocks) was already produced in three patterns of blocks with various colors mixed in, but a new single-color version was commissioned. By making the roughness of the grinding finer, the fabric feel disappears and the look becomes like real bricks or pottery. By combining them with different materials, we took on the challenge of bringing out a new look.
