SÅDD is a pilot project for our work with reused materials in interiors. We aimed a buying as little as possible new, and succeeded in producing almost everything out of preloved furniture or discarded materials. The front of the main counter is adorned with pieces of concrete sourced from a different building site across campus, the bases for the benches came from old school chairs, and the wood panelling on the walls would have otherwise been considered trash. The purple lamp cords are reused from lamps previously hanging in the location. The lampshades are made by Osloleire, who salvages clay from construction sites around Oslo which is usually destined for the landfill. Even old, broken tiles were repurposed in the countertop for a table and disposal station.
