Momentum Studio

- The DDP Design Fair’s Lifestyle and Living category will showcase upcycled products. We are making slippers with discarded vinyl flooring. We reuse waste materials, particularly vinyl flooring, from the remodeling project of Guerrillaz’s co-living house. Guerrillaz has unveiled various upcycled products, and this time, we, Momentum, are collaborating with Guerrillaz to make slippers. We tried to let the pattern of vinyl flooring such as the grain of wood stand out tastefully and took a sentimental approach to make people feel the nostalgia of old vinyl flooring. Even if it is a modern space, I wanted to keep the feeling of walking on a retro-feeling floor. Even though people are staying at a modern space, we wanted them to have a feeling of walking on retro style vinyl flooring.

Guerrillaz

- Guerillaz is a company that runs a co-living house based in Namyeong-dong, Yongsan-gu. We design various things with waste materials from remodeling projects of obsolete accommodations. We are preparing various product ranges such as décor items and artworks made out of discarded vinyl flooring, gunnysacks and other stuff. If a certain recycled material could be transformed into a popular design, we would be able create a whole new trend, like Freitag which make items from recycled truck tarps.
