“Circolar…Mente” Ideas Competition

Liceo Artistico Statale di Treviso for the “Usable Object category – High schools” with the project “Multifunctional armchair“, an object that simultaneously performs the function
of ergonomic seat, support surface and shoe rack, whose prototype was made on a 1:2 scale using waste materials, also recovered from the warehouses of local companies, such as: iron grids and
scraps, oak wooden pallets, triple-layer cardboard shipping packaging, plexiglass panels and other waste materials from the homes of the students involved in the project;

Collegio “Brandolini – Rota” of Oderzo for the category “Design object – Middle school” with the project “THE ART OF RECYCLING. Have you ever made a painting with 15 materials?“,
representing a mountain landscape with a colourful rainbow. The choice of this subject and the use of numerous materials is intended to draw the viewer’s attention and to make them
understand how it is possible to create a work of art with all that waste we produce every day without even realising it. The rainbow represents the symbol of the transition from primary to
secondary school, experienced by the children with serenity and joy, while the little house is the symbol of a school experienced and loved as one’s own home.
