Sustainable product relations

Friederike Glaser und Joyce Moore

Due to a lack of access to components, it is possible only extremely rarely for products to be repaired by the actual users. The concept uses showcase products to demonstrate that ‘design for care and repair’ is both possible and feasible. For example, a kettle designed on these lines can be disassembled into all of its individual components thanks to click-together connections. The heating element, cable and electronics can be replaced if defective.
