Exploring Non Mainstream Materials

> Studio started with Exploration in Mainstream material and later exploring alternative non mainstream material.  Papercrete, Paper Mache, Tea Waste, Cork, Recycled Plastics, Bamboo and other non materials were explored in the studio.
> Drawings and User Study of the Folding Portable Laptop/ Study Table was done to redesign and to identify the user's problems.  The Table is designed with Non Mainstream materials (HDPE Recycled Plastic and Bamboo). It extends sideways so the user can sit easily in a cross legged position and have extra space to keep Phone and Stationery while being compact and portable.
