As Onaranlar Kulübü, we came together at Furnishings and Design Istanbul from September 19-21 to transform exhibition spaces through the power of design. During this three-day creative process, we revitalized the exhibition stands through upcycling and sustainable designs. Throughout the event, we not only created aesthetically pleasing designs but also functional ones, emphasizing once again the importance of sustainability and environmental awareness.
The stands within the exhibition area were transformed into new and creative forms by re-evaluating the materials used. Each piece was reshaped with an artistic perspective using recycling and upcycling techniques, while also enhancing its functionality for long-term use. This process was not just a design-focused event but also a tangible expression of our environmental sensitivity. On this transformation journey, where sustainability was at the forefront, participants experienced the importance of contributing to both the physical environment and society.
In addition, a panel began with the question, “Can an event be eco-friendly?” where experts in this field came together to share valuable insights on eco-conscious designs and the societal benefits of upcycling.
Our event did not only produce new designs; it also offered an unforgettable experience for everyone who wanted to contribute to society and the environment. The projects created by the collaboration of creative minds throughout the fair further strengthened our belief in sustainability.
This transformative journey at Furnishings and Design Istanbul became an inspiring step toward future eco-friendly designs and upcycling projects. We look forward to meeting again at the next FDI event with even more creative and sustainable projects!
