Workshop Lékué x OiKo
Barcelona Design Week, 2023
On 24 October, as part of Barcelona Design Week, we had the pleasure of presenting, together with Lékué, the result of months of research and development of the innovative platinum silicone recycling project, accompanied by a fantastic workshop.
Our goal was clear: to validate this new material from the user's experiential perspective. For us, a successful product must not only be environmentally compatible, technically feasible and economically viable, but above all, it must be desirable for the end user.
Industrial designers, material experts and kitchen enthusiasts immersed themselves in the experience of interacting with various platinum silicone samples, from virgin material to samples with varying degrees of recycling. This event provided valuable insights into the emotions that different materials convey and the essential qualities they must have to be applied in culinary products.
It was a privilege to share this milestone in sustainable design and creative collaboration - many thanks to all participants!
