Description

This work develops a circular, functional tent system as an alternative to bringing private tents to festivals. The starting point is the massive waste problem: thousands of tents are left behind unused every year – difficult to recycle, material-intensive, logistically inefficient. The tent panels are made as a mono-material and are therefore fully recyclable. The inflatable structures enable tool-free assembly in just a few minutes and, thanks to parallel chambers, create a comfortable sense of space while minimizing the external volume. In addition to ecological optimization, the project proposes a new business model for festival organizers: the centralized provision of standardized accommodation instead of individual tent transport. This saves resources, improves site and waste management, and increases the quality of stay for visitors. The project re-imagines temporary living – as a customizable, communal, and sustainable infrastructure.
