On the first day of the fair, was presented this award for young talents focusing on the closed-substance cycle for the fourth year running.<br \/>\nThe awards went to five young designers from Italy, Great Britain and Germany. Chosen by a jury of upcycling and design experts, the winners are <strong>Katrin Krupka<\/strong> from Potsdam and <strong>Marina Varfolomeeva<\/strong> from Milan.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<span lang=\"en-GB\"><em>The subject of sustainability has also been an important aspect of the fair for some years and is more than just a short-lived trend for us. With the competition, we have once again succeeded in creating a platform that draws the attention of trade and industry to young designers<\/em>\u201d, said <strong>Ulrike Wechsung,<\/strong> Heimtextil Director, during the awards ceremony. With over 26 entries, the competition proved very popular among up-and-coming designers, interior architects and interior decorators \u2013 especially from European academies. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4>Winner of the new \u2018Room concept\u2019 category from Milan<\/h4>\n<p>A new feature of our award is the opening of the competition to master students and young master craftsmen from the interior-decoration trade. Accordingly, Heimtextil has expanded the competition to include the \u2018Room Concepts\u2019 category. The first winner of the new category is <strong>Marina Varfolomeeva<\/strong> of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.domusacademy.com\/it\/\">Domus Academy in Milan<\/a> with her project entitled \u2018<em>Renewal Room<\/em>\u2019. She skilfully took up the challenge of creating a complete room under the upcycling motto.<\/p>\n<h4>Celebrations in London, Oldenburg, Potsdam and Schneeberg.<\/h4>\n<p>The winner in the \u2018<em>Contract<\/em>\u2019 category is <strong>Katrin Krupka<\/strong>, a graduate student of Potsdam University of Applied Sciences for her project entitled \u2018Recreate Textiles \u2013 Collection of Materials made from Industrial Cotton Waste\u2019.<br \/>\n\u201c<em>The successful project is based on uncompromisingly applied scientific principles and extensive research into materials<\/em>\u201d, said the jury. \u201cIn the final analysis, the designer focused her material study on industrial waste. In this way, she has formed a creative basis in the sense of upcycling with a wide variety of potential new applications.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Second prize went to Detlef Nordemann of Oldenburg Chamber of Commerce for his project, \u2018Loom\u2019, an armchair creation based on the backrest of a chair and a big cushion. In third place came Wuthigrai Siriphon of the Royal College of Art in London with his project, \u2018Hand-woven textiles for next-generation craftspeople\u2019. With recycled plastic threads, he has breathed new life into an almost extinct handicraft whereby, fully in the sense of upcycling, he replaces yarn with plastic threads to create a multi-functional 3D fabric that can be used, for example, as a room divider or wall.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the Heimtextil management gave a special award to Lars Dahlitz of the Faculty for Applied Art in Schneeberg for his project entitled \u2018Furniture from old wood. An experimental furniture series with individual pieces\u2019 in which he transformed old wine barrels into new seats.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-259\" src=\"http:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young-03.jpg\" alt=\"Young Creations Award: Upcycling\" width=\"960\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young-03.jpg 960w, https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young-03-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young-03-768x528.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-257\" src=\"http:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young_creations_award_ps_002.jpg\" alt=\"Young Creations Award: Upcycling\" width=\"2303\" height=\"1535\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young_creations_award_ps_002.jpg 2303w, https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young_creations_award_ps_002-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young_creations_award_ps_002-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/metainitaly.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/young_creations_award_ps_002-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2303px) 100vw, 2303px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Heimtextil il quarto Young Creations Award: Upcycling sui tessuti d&#8217;arredamento per giovani talenti ha premiato creativi di Milano e Postdam Heimtextil\u00a0demonstrates the multifarious applications open to creative upcycling with the &#8216;Young Creations Awards: Upcycling\u2019.
