Objective of the project is the design of a generic, local-based manufacturing facility, ReFab, which is constructed from salvaged materials and operates through collective effort and interactive cultivation in the employment of refuse as raw material input in advanced production processes. These disposed elements can, if elaborated in proper manner, comprise an integral part of the raw material reserve in a perpetual loop of an advanced manufacturing practice. A transcending process that allows disused materials to become again part of the city life, by offering affordable products and elementary infrastructure that respond to the community’s needs, and simultaneously the self-efficiency, development and replication of this autonomous spatial configuration into an adaptive network.
