The SULTAN project wishes to draw attention to mass-consumption and present a possible afterlife for discarded objects. By disassembling the mattresses, the pavilion exhibits the different materials of the Sultan bed, suggesting a new way to harness the potential of forgotten objects as building materials.

With a precise fabrication we have been able to create a functional and aesthetic space that allows you to dream along with the dreams of past owners. The tactile surfaces and play of light trigger the imagination and challenge our ordinary understanding of what we see as trash.

SULTAN raises a very important concern about how hard it is to recycle things in a modern society, because of the complexity of the society we’ve come to live in. We wish to open up a discussion on how we use materials because If we are to move forward to a sustainable future we need to stop producing and instead rethink how to repurpose materials and objects that already exist.
