LN-CC continues its ongoing sustainable project and draws in the help of DRx Romanelli for the latest RxCYCLE collection. The new initiative brings life back to unused fabric materials and parts to be altered for a new purpose. This concept marks the first installment of the project set to be ongoing.
DRx worked with the furniture label Doron Silverman in previous years and once again to create chair and sofa designs. The pieces are constructed from unused materials by Vetements, Raf Simons, Martine Rose, Maison Margiela, ALYX, and Off-White. The streetwear giants incorporate its forgotten materials to create a single sofa and two chairs, giving a luxe, yet unconventional aesthetic. The furniture pieces are on display at LN-CC and are also available for purchase online and in-store.
