Design With (Less Than) Nothing was a seminar course that invited students to explore the transformative potential of discarded materials. This course encouraged us to select waste items—from overlooked industrial scraps to everyday objects—and create innovative, meaningful, sale-able design solutions. We explored a variety of materials, considering both conventional and unconventional sources, aiming to foster a mindset of experimentation and resourcefulness.
