A MULTICULTURAL COUPLE BASED IN BERLIN TRYING TO CREATE A BETTER FUTURE FOR – AND WITH - OUR TWO CHILDREN. WE ALL ARE MiNiMONO.

THIS PROJECT WAS DEVELOPED DURING THE FIRST COVID1 LOCKDOWN, WHEN WE SPENT A LOT OF TIME TOGETHER AS A FAMILY AT HOME. IT WAS DURING THIS TIME THAT WE OBSERVED NOT ONLY HOW MUCH PLASTIC WASTE WE WERE PRODUCING, BUT ALSO HOW EACH OF US USED THE SAME PIECE OF FURNITURE IN DIFFERENT WAYS.

FROM THIS, WE DECIDED TO DESIGN FURNITURE THAT WAS LONG-LASTING, EASY TO CLEAN, VISUALLY BEAUTIFUL TO SEE AND CAN BE USED AND LOVED BY BOTH ADULTS AND CHILDREN. AND SO, MiNiMONO WAS BORN.

OUR GOAL IS TO TURN DISCARDED PLASTIC INTO LIFE-LASTING OBJECTS THAT ARE ADAPTABLE TO MULTIPLE USES, ENVIRONMENTS AND GENERATIONS.

WE DESIGN FURNITURE FOR FAMILIES WITH BOTH FUNCTIONALITY AND AESTHETICS IN MIND BECAUSE WE BELIEVE THAT EVERYDAY OBJECTS HAVE THE POWER TO GET PEOPLE ENGAGED WITH THE CIRCULAR ECONOMY.
