WEAR YOUR TENT

CONCEPT | CREATION | PRODUCT DESIGN | PHOTOGRAPHY

Every year, over 25.000 tents are left behind on festival campsites in the Netherlands. Despite the various alternatives, people continue to leave them behind because they are too tired or the tent is broken. Recycling is not an option for festival organisations because of the many materials that are used within a tent. To provide a solution to the problem and to use as much of the tent as possible I made Wear Your Tent; tent fanny packs. Instead of being uninvited to the after party, your tent can now join you on the dance floor!

The construction of the fanny pack refers to the structure of the tent. The flysheet is used for the exterior and inside pockets are made from the inner tent. Zippers, stitching lines and window material are used to create unique designs. Other tent parts become accessories, for example a key holder.

Currently I am working on several designs made from different coloured tents. Here are some material examples.
