From the 22-25th September 2011 some of the African & African-Caribbean Design Diaspora Designers will be collaborating with 100%Design London and the British European Design Group to transform a 96sq metre space and create a playful and eclectic sitting area - the "Re-Loved Lounge" using African and African-Caribbean design inspiration in fabrics, colour schemes and accessories.
The brief for the AACDD designers has been to 're-love' and 'up-cycle' discarded furniture transforming it once again into desirable objects for the home thus challenging the ethos of a throw-away consumer society.
The ‘Re-Loved’ Lounge at 100% Design will consist of three zones, which will blend formal and informal seating areas providing a mixture of furniture for eating and relaxing.
