Bio ︎
The New Raw crafts plastic waste with robots.
The New Raw is a research and design studio based in
Rotterdam (Netherlands) founded in 2015 by architects Panos
Sakkas and Foteini Setaki with the ambition to give new life to
discarded materials through design, robots and craftsmanship.
The New Raw develops its own (digital) craftsmanship techniques through a formal and technical language that
highlights the texture and the layer-by-layer character of its
in-house robotic manufacturing process. The exploration of the
possibilities that the robotic techniques provide transform
plastic waste into beautiful and meaningful products that are
100% circular.
