A broken bicycle inner tube – now what?
Bicycle inner tubes are true high-tech materials: flexible, super strong – and far too good to throw away. Instead of discarding them, you can use them to make coasters, bags, or your own unique everyday objects.
In this workshop you will try out braiding and joining techniques, experiment with the material and develop your first own object.
You'll discover how old materials can be transformed into something new using creativity and technology – and why sustainability can be really fun.
