Development process
A collaborative academic project revisiting an existing room divider through the IHOBE ecodesign methodology. The starting point is the product’s life cycle, from its materials to disassembly.
Simplifying the product
The proposal removes polystyrene and explores a pine structure with fewer material types. Assembly, finishes, packaging and transport are treated as connected design decisions.
Dividing and organising
Alongside separating spaces, the structure incorporates small shelves. The presentation brings together the design intentions: easier maintenance, disassembly and a clearer relationship between structure and function.
This is an academic proposal. Environmental and service-life improvements are design targets, not certified outcomes.
