Over the course of 4,5 weeks, BYBORRE gathered enough textile waste for Tejo Remy to make one new version of the Rag Chair. To accompany the BYBORRE Rag Chair, a new product has been added to their project; a rug made out of high quality textile scraps recovered during the sampling process

Minimising textile waste and reusing materials

In a traditional system, there are many physical samples produced before one design is finalized. With the digital textile design platform BYBORRE Createâ„¢, BYBORRE has managed to minimize the textile waste drastically, mainly by replacing most physical samples with digital samples. The platform offers the possibility to creators to design their own knitted textile digitally, in a more conscious and responsible way. Once the design is finalized digitally, a physical copy is knitted with the highest quality yarns. There is minimal to no textile waste.
