‘Flatpack : Repacked’ is an investigation into how residents in the City of Melbourne furnish their homes, and the opportunities to minimise waste and potential to rethink furniture lifecycles.
This project aims to provide solutions to hard rubbish waste by investigating the lifecycle of furniture in the City of Melbourne.
By determining the mechanisms and motivations that shape the purchasing and disposing of furniture in urban settings, this research will advise short- and long-term interventions based on the 4Rs of a circular economy – reduce, reuse, recycle and remove.
The project will include piloting an intervention to determine its potential function within the circular economy model.
