Keep It Tiny - Designers In Residence
We'd like to look back on mid-December of 2019, when the Designers In Residence of Designregion Kortrijk launched 'Keep It Tiny'.
Oleksandra Gerasymchuk, Yun Pei Hsiung & Lucie Dubois created an open source board-game designed to make the players reflect on the way we live now and creates discussing points on how living could evolve in the future.
The designers contacted #hackyourjeans to check if we could collaborate to include a recycled jeans part in their board-game.

We called upon our network and immediately Pieters Textiel had a solution for their fabric shortage.
At first the designers wanted to create the board-game tiles out of this type of fabric, but since the game is open-source they opted for an easily printable material.
To make the board-game portable, the designers made a drawstring bag out of fabric from Pieters Textiel that is used to make mattress ticking.
On Thursday the twelfth of December 2019, they organised an event to present and play the game. We met up with David from Pieters Textiel to see the final result and talk about the future of domestic living!
