Green Concept Award 2024 nominates HAWK graduate Lisa Schollbach

Soundproofing, space-saving and recyclable

Tapi

Living space is scarce – this increases the demand for space-saving furniture. The folding table "Tapi" by designer and HAWK graduate Lisa Schollbach meets this need. But it offers even more: It is made from recycled materials and follows the "Silent Furniture" concept, meaning it is soundproof.

The folding table can be flexibly used in 3 different positions, adapting to various needs. Through a deliberately simple design of the mechanisms, it ensures effortless and intuitive operation. This allows for flexible adjustment to various positions that meet different requirements, depending on individual needs. As a versatile folding table, Tapi contributes to efficient space utilisation, creates temporary storage areas, and reduces the need for additional furniture. Lisa Schollbach has also designed Tapi as easily stackable shipping goods to make transportation as efficient and sustainable as possible.
