Description
PHOOEY Architects designed and constructed their Carpet Couch and Office approx 10 years ago. The couch is located in the ground floor lift lobby and comprises salvaged remnant carpet from our office upstairs. It is a comfortable and functional billboard for zero-waste sustainability.
Carpet is the first thing people tend to rip out and throw away when doing a refurbishment. 96 per cent of it – 2.1 billion kilograms a year – is dumped into a landfill. With its high embodied energy, the challenge is how to make that 96 per cent worth something.
Upstairs, a strategic mix of new, recycled and upcycled materials has been strategically applied to transform a small office space (72m2) into a spacious, sleek and eclectic architectural office with a view across Elizabeth Street to one of Melbourne’s grand old buildings.
Access: Pram accessible, Fully accessible (although small space)
