It‘s not hard to understand that recycling isn‘t a big thing in Serbia. People can barely make ends meet and the last thing they are thinking about is the environment. It is a shame that environmental-friendly products are only available to a privileged minority, everything that has an environmental label is twice as expensive. Today and here in my country it is considered more as a fashion than a necessity.

The emerge of new wastelands is a growing problem in Serbia. That is why this project begun at one of those wastelands in Belgrade. A couple of themes are present in this project: re-use and recycling materials as well as recycling functions. That is how the old supermarket-trolley got the lead role in the following scenarios: a chair with a footstool and a chair with a coffee table.

Relocating the supermarket trolley from their original consumption environment and giving them a brand new purpose, aims to shift the focus from the material and draw attention to the significance of nurturing and developing spiritual and noble civilizational values.
