ABOUT THE PRODUCT
One of the main purposes of designing and making products is encouraging consumers to buy more new stuff, but everything will eventually end up as garbage. These pillows are one step ahead. At first glance it will look like a pile of garbage bags, but on closer inspection they turn out to be comfortable pillows. A pile of garbage you’d want to jump in to before you throw it away. These Garbage Pillows are made from deadstock fabrics, and filled with recycled PET fibers.
Each bag is made with leftover fabrics. This means the composition of the fabric is not always known. Natural fabrics may crock and stain light furniture or clothing. Not suitable for children.

THE BRAND
JARLE VELDMAN
Jarle Veldman’s objects are responses to our society’s overabundance of pre-existing products. Jarle questions the functions of everyday objects and the value we place on them by investigating the relationships between do-it-yourself culture, exclusive design, and consumerism.
His PREMIUM BANANAS collection products are a direct translation of other possible functions that the most common abundant products could have. A cardboard box is transformed into a table. A pallet is transformed into a sofa. Different objects’ shapes and functions become mixed together, and functions are no longer defined but open to new interpretations.
