By-Product 2021 at Melbourne Design Week
By-Product is a group exhibition exploring how circular economy and open-source knowledge sharing can help reduce waste in design, produced by E tū and Ulla-Britta.
Leading Australian designers are creating an object made from waste by-products from their practice and making their process and insights open-source for the broader design community.
By-product offers online and IRL experience including a three day group exhibition in the iconic Mycelium Studios and a digital showcase of an open-source website exhibiting videos and downloadable resources to help others create from waste.
Both environments seek to explore ‘How might applying open-source philosophies accelerate a shift towards a circular economy in the design industry?’
