GLUE TALKS
What if we design with what can grow again?
— FOUNDER .amsterdam &
Session in English
Oep Schilling is the founder of Fiction Factory, the renowned production workshop that creates interiors, exhibitions and one-of-a-kind projects for architects, designers and brands. He is also the driving force behind the iconic Wikkelhouse: a modular house made from cardboard, wood and flax. In collaboration with Dutch design brand Weltevree, he also developed the Wikkeltent: an adventurous hybrid between a house and a tent. For Oep, change begins with material. Broadly speaking, there are resources that can grow back and resources we extract from the earth. The latter are finite, while our demand for products, interiors and buildings continues to grow. What does that mean for the choices designers and makers make today? No traditional presentation or large screen. Instead, during .amsterdam Oep invites you into a direct, screen-free session guided by a handout. His central message: we need to become more conscious of what we use and fundamentally rethink how we design and build.
