REVAMP!




COLLABORATIVE CONSUMPTION FEAT UPCYCLE


There are so many unwanted items staying in our garage, left with no touch because our space just can't accommodate or they simply lost their charm. One man's trash may be another man's treasure. 

10M items of furniture is thrown away each year in UK
By 2018 UK landfill is expected to run out
90 Tons of landfill waste is saved by furniture reused

Definitely have to do something about this number.



Revamp! is my proposed space where people can barter their furnitures. They bring in their old items and in return they will get points. The points may be use to get new items that are displayed at the showroom whether the items are in original condition or had been upcycled. Those products worth certain points as well. If you don't have enough points to be bartered, you can use money to pay or donate more things to get more points.
